Collaboration Tools: Microsoft Teams - Virtual Train the Trainer (Live Online using MS Teams)
Finished
Are you new to teaching online? It is natural to feel apprehensive of this mode of delivery, virtual training has an additional skill set to those in a classroom based situation, and though your existing training skills remain essential, there is another layer of technical expertise to master. This online virtual workshop will help build your confidence delivering training sessions and give you an opportunity to practice and to receive feedback from other trainers. The emphasis of the course is not about the method and practice of teaching as an academic subject or theoretical concept, this is a hands-on workshop where you can practice in a safe environment. Before the workshop session, you must create an activity or convert one of your existing courses to an online version, and be prepared to present a 15-20 minute session. You will need to demonstrate that you have thought through and manged the pre-course bookings, communications and activities as well as competence using an online delivery tool. The workshop will be friendly and supportive with a maximum of three participants. You must have Teams installed on your computer to participate.
Though this is an informal training session you may like to review the competences required to achieve certification by CompTIA If you book:
