Training the Trainers Online Conference

Training the Trainers Online Conference
5 and 6 November 2008

Pontydysgu is happy to be supporting the first (as far as we know) on-line international conference on the training of trainers taking place on the 5 and 6 November 2008. The conference is for all those interested in the training and professional development of teachers and trainers. This includes teachers, trainers, tutors, researchers, managers and policy makers and other interested individuals.The conference will take place through the internet using the Elluminate conference tool. We hope this will not only reduce the carbon footprint of our activities, but will allow wide participation by those who might not be able to travel.The conference will be organised around four themes:

* Theme 1 - The changing role of trainers in learning
* Theme 2: E-learning for trainers
* Theme 3: Work-based learning
* Theme 4: Support for the professional development of trainers
