Apple RTC
http://www.apple.com/uk/education/rtc/ The Regional Training Centre programme helps teachers bring learning to life with digital technology. A nationwide network of Apple-approved Regional Training Centres (RTC) coach primary and secondary teachers in the use of Apple’s award-winning software packages giving them the know-how to enliven school lessons with images, video and sound. The Regional Training Centre programme builds on the experience and achievements of many teachers already using Apple technology in the classroom. The programme covers the UK and Ireland, offering all school staff the opportunity to attend a course relevant to their curriculum interests and needs. Sunderland CLC's are equipped with a number of networked Apple Mac computers, all equipped with the latest version of Apple's amazing I Life software. I Life integrates video editing, music and podcast creation, as well as Photo editing and DVD authoring. So simple, even an adult can use it! Why not try your hand at animation, video editing with chromakey technology, or podcasting like a pro. Contact the CLC for a programme of courses available and put the fun back into teaching.

We are also able to offer preferential pricing on Immersive products to schools in the City. Check out http://www.immersiveeducation.com/training/ for more details or contact the CLCs.
In the near future Sunderland City Learning Centres are set to become Centres of Excellence for Matchware.
Matchware produce software for mind mapping and multimedia authoring. The CLC’s have already successfully trained a large number of teachers in Sunderland in the use of this software. The applications are a vital tool in the teacher and pupil toolkit to effectively plan, review and develop many aspects of teaching and learning. Watch out for more information on training courses offered at the CLC’s for teachers and pupils. |
