Creative Blogs can cater for all your INSET and training requirements. Whether it is one-to-one Wordpress administration training, or whole staff INSET on how to use blogging in the classroom, we can tailor a course to meet your needs.  

Blog Training

For most schools we would recommend two half-day training sessions:

• Administrator training - usually to no more than two or three staff. This session focuses on the way a blog site functions: how to add blogs and users; manage posts and pages; change the look and them of your blog; all the security issues around comments etc.
• Blogging in the Classroom - could be an extended staff-meeting or half-day INSET; this session is designed to show teachers how to use the power of blogs in the classroom to provide meaningful, engaging and inspiring activities for their class.

These sessions are sold as a package for £500, or £275 individually. Travel expenses are negotiable with the individual trainer, but will not apply to a radius of 50 miles from the trainer’s home.

Trainers

We are looking to develop a network of trainers across the country to provide support and training at a local level. If you want training outside of the geographical regions covered, contact john@creativeict.co.uk to discuss your requirements.
