This very comprehensive program is a UK Government-based initiative that is now available in Australia.
Training is online and is designed to equip teachers with the knowledge.
Technical and Curriculum-based support comes in the form of email, a collaborative chat room facility and a help desk. Two levels of entry provide for primary and secondary school teachers and entry levels of training depend upon the abilities of the user. This course presents an excellent opportunity for either schools or individual teachers to gain the skills and confidence to effectively implement learning technologies into all areas of the curriculum. It was developed in the UK where it is an accredited program for online learning technology teacher training. Curtin University has now formally accepted it as an accredited program and three other universities in Australia are considering its use as part of either a Graduate Diploma or Masters program.
