Bootcamps are specifically designed for educators who lack experience with e-learning, and are actively teaching online. The concepts and techniques can be applied in both Higher Education and corporate training.

In each bootcamp you will:

• Build engaging online activities you can use straight away with undergrads, postgrads or professionals
• Tackle focussed challenges relevant to your own situation
• Collaborate to create resources, and share ideas and inspiration
• Enhance your skills through practice, expert guidance and peer feedback
• Connect with like-minded colleagues across a range of disciplines

This isn't just a talking shop, it's active learning, in the kind of supportive, collaborative environment you foster for your own students.
