The Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS) has commissioned a new programme to support whole organisational approaches to the harnessing of technology for learning.

The eCPD Programme, part of the Teaching and Learning Programme, will develop materials and tools to support practitioners make more effective use of technology to improve teaching and learning.

Launch conference

A launch conference for the eCPD programme is being held on 5th February 2009, at the Russell Hotel, London. This is a practitioner focused event for all those engaged in the Further Education (FE) system.

Details of this event from ALT at http://www.alt.ac.uk/conferences.php including an invitation to submit a proposal to run a workshop at the launch conference if you or your organisation have good practice to share in the use of technology to support learning.

Nomination of Advisers

Providers across the Further Education (FE) system are being asked to nominate an influential member of staff to lead whole organisational approaches to improve teaching and learning, using technology.

You are asked to nominate a Professional Development Adviser (PDA) with a successful track record of making effective use of technology to champion the use of e-learning teaching approaches across your organisation. PDAs will be supported by online resources, communities of practice and virtual networks, and there will be funding to support exemplary work and showcase effective practice.
