These sessions are designed to familiarise participants in some of the Microsoft tools which support communication, problem solving, and  digital learning amongst other aspects of the 21^st CLD framework.

This valuable opportunity is open to any individuals interested in developing their own skills and knowledge. Whole school settings are also invited to register as the course programs may support them as they progress through frameworks and offering certificated professional learning to all staff which may positively impact learning and teaching, and support investment in infrastructure.

Both the Microsoft Office Specialist Program (MOS) and Microsoft Certified Educator Program (MCE) cover a range of skills and tools enabling participants to maximise the impact which Glow and other O365 products can have for learning, teaching, and professional development.
