Let's Create an Online Balance ....

An effective online learning program requires a different approach to designing face-to-face classes, with different strategies needed to engage learners and motivate them to log in to your classes!

Students thrive on social interactions, so planning a session that makes use of the tools available in a synchronous virtual classroom setting is just as important to how the session is delivered live to your students.

Being prepared is half the victory so we have dedicated our next Focus Week to assist you with that preparation.  With two of the five webinars offered across the week 24-28 May being designed specifically to help you understand the critical nature of some of the fundamentals of online learning these sessions are set to provide you with the essential skills and knowledge to ensure your students remain engaged and motivated throughout their elearning experience.

Check out these webinars below:
