Practice Development Groups (PDG) Exchanges – Now Open for Bookings!
PDG Exchanges – What are they?
The team at touchconsulting Ltd are delighted to announce the launch of the Education and Training Foundation’s Exchange series. All four fully subsidised Exchanges are now open for bookings.
PDG Exchanges are a series of online short events designed by practitioners for practitioners on a range of current teaching, learning and assessment (TLA) topics. Each session unpacks a ‘big’ evidence-informed idea, models an online tool which can help bring the idea alive for learners, and provides a safe solo/peer space for participants to test the tool and their thinking.
