The Net-Trainers course has been established to provide participants with the knowledge and skills to develop and deliver courses using Internet technologies.
What the course offers you:
- A precourse assessment process that ensures that you and the course are the right match
- Professionally designed content, that conforms to usability and accessibility standards
- Online delivery - there is no need to attend the college at any time
- The experience of being taught using Moodle, the open source virtual learning environment
- Full support from highly experienced, expert tutors who will provide guidance and feedback from the start to the finish of the course
- Communication with course peers, enabling networking and the sharing of ideas and experiences. Some assessed activities will be collaborative
- The opportunity to develop and online learning project, with support from tutor and peers
- A recognised Level 4 qualification from the Open College Network
Our approach:
The Net-Trainers course (160 hours online and distance learning, approx. 6 - 10 hours of study per week) gives the training participants the experience of learning using the Internet. Its approach is to explore the pedagogical design and delivery of online courses by:
- contents that thoroughly explore the potential and challenges of online learning
- experiential learning by being an online learner
- observing the tutoring methods of experienced and expert tutors
In this way trainers will understand the needs of learners when developing and delivering online training.
