The Provider Development team deliver a range of webinars to prepare you for delivery and for your continuing professional development (CPD).
- Our onboarding webinar is on demand and is aimed towards new centres and new staff to give an overview of information on NCFE Functional Skills qualifications. Content includes: overview of FS, content, sample assessment material, assessment structure, support and NCFE resources.
- Functional Foundations webinars provide comprehensive support for teachers new to teaching maths and English.
- CPD webinars are interactive sessions aimed towards FS maths and English teachers who wish to improve their knowledge and skills in specific areas. The registration page for each session gives further information on individual session contents.
