Getting Ready to Teach Event

Arrived in my inbox today:

We appreciate that it is not always easy for you to attend face-to-face training events away from your school or college. With this in mind we have developed this event, the first in a series of online events to support your new GCE 2008 specification.

This interactive 1-hour event is designed to:

• amplify the key points from the recent GCE 2008 Geography Getting Ready to Teach events

• identify and resolve subject specific FAQs

• provide an open online forum to help resolve subject specific queries.

Participating in online training sessions is a simple process – and you can use the session to train a whole department. Prior to the event you will be sent an email with a web link to check that your PC can run the event and a link to the virtual training room. You will also need to ensure that your PC is sound enabled and are advised to log-in to the event 15 minutes before the start. This is so we can make sure any potential connection problems can be ironed out.

Once in the training room and the event has started, you will be able to see the presentation, hear the presenter and ask questions through the onscreen chat window. Questions will be answered live with the answers collated and used to populate our Ask Edexcel online Q&A facility.

To participate in this training session please do one of the following using the event details below:
