Live Networks
Learn what’s new, explore challenges and share success in our regular themed networks.
Running every month during term time each session begins with a 15 minute training session on something that’s new or relevant to right now, followed by the opportunity to break out and explore the issue with colleagues. It’s a great opportunity to get new ideas and connect with colleagues across the country.
