Danny, can I say what an excellent event yesterday's workshop was! So good to attend something that was focussed, relevant, interesting and well-structured...and backed up with really useful materials.

Excellent and really inspiring but at the same time very approachable.

Course topics:

The workshop covers all the curriculum requirements of the Professional Development Award, made up of two specialist units:

Design e-Learning
This unit considers strategies and techniques for the design of effective e-learning. It employs a practical, problem-solving approach to designing pedagogically aligned e-learning across diverse levels of learning and teaching. It aims to develop skills in planning and design that will allow subsequent development and implementation processes to be more efficient and more likely to meet their goals. Full unit description.
Develop e-Learning
This unit examines the evaluation of e-learning resources and aligning them with the desired learning levels and outcomes. It aims to develop an understanding of how to discover, select and blend resources to meet learning goals under modern presures to re-use existing content or incorporate content produced externally. Full unit description.

A really useful workshop. Looking forward to putting into practice what I have learnt

It was excellent, saved me a lot of research time and I will be applying some of the analysis and design points in my role.

Very interesting day. Well presented. Stress free.

As well as a rewarding learning experience, this event also provides recognition for your new skills and knowledge through our BTEC-accredited professional development programme.

Edexcel

The course is well run by a dedicated group of staff whose assessment is accurate and consistent throughout. Feedback is excellent both in quality and quantity, with learners being told what they must do to rectify errors and being allowed time to do so.- BTEC verification report on the Netskills accreditation schemes

Why would I want a qualification?

Our training has a well-earned reputation for helping participants develop the practical skills they need. However, we know that sometimes you need proof of your abilities. That's why this event was designed to lead to a recognised qualification in e-learning. It is awarded through BTEC, meaning that it's thoroughly quality controlled and widely recognised.

How do I get my qualification?

You will complete a number of short practical assessments, receive tutor feedback and support, and by the end of the workshop, you will have completed the qualification, subject to final verification.
