Actions and critical dates

Attend a free online session showcasing highlights of the Moving Online with Mentor professional development program on 4 May, 10am -12 noon by registering at the VET Development Centre.

In 2021-2022 the VET Development Centre on behalf of the ACFE Board offered a two-part professional development program for Learn Local providers on Teaching Online.

Thirty participants from various Learn Local providers participated in both parts of this program.

These participants have advanced themselves from beginner status in online delivery to having developed instructional design skills and built and implemented and evaluated an online learning resource in the delivery of their pre-accredited programs.

In the second half of the program the participants were assisted by Learn Local mentors to implement online teaching and learning in practice. One of the mentors is also on the showcase program and will share her experience as a mentor in this program.
