What is an online CPD course?

The online courses are delivered via pre-recorded video lectures which are presented by expert speakers and accompanied by supporting graphics and slides.

Our online CPD courses consist of audio recordings and slides, from courses that have taken place as part of our regular classroom based CPD schedule.

What is a CPD webinar (Live)?
CPD webinars are informative online events where one of our expert speakers, or panel of speakers, deliver a presentation live online at a scheduled time. We regularly offer a series of wide-ranging webinars to make sure you are up-to-speed with the latest information and current best-practice.
The webinars often allow for questions from the audience and other audience participation like online polls, quizzes, and other available interactive tools. If you can’t attend remotely during the live session, we’ll also offer a recorded version that you can watch at a time that suits you.

What is a virtual classroom?
A virtual classroom is a live and interactive online learning environment, where presenters and course attendee engage with course materials, interact with one another, and work in groups together. The aim is to provide the same great learning experience you get in a physical classroom, except in an online format.
The key distinction of a virtual classroom is that it takes place in a live, synchronous setting and may involve some pre and post course work such as viewing of pre-recorded videos or reading supporting materials or articles. These asynchronous materials are built around the presenter led, virtual classroom session itself where a range of tools may be used to foster live interaction between presenter and participants, these include; two way video, virtual break-out sessions, polls, screen-sharing, and interactive Q&A, all designed to create an immersive learning experience.
Virtual classrooms are not a passive experience and participants are encouraged to engage, to share their thoughts and experience as well as undertaking collaborative and individual activities. In this type of interaction, the presenter has the particularly important role of the moderator who guides the learning process and supports group activities and discussions.
