The School Suite free access course is made up of two modules, Pedagogy and Practice and Understanding SEND, each with 6 hours of content.

The Pedagogy and Practice module was developed for new and early career teachers and aligned to the ECF and the Teacher Standards to increase understanding of the way children learn. Informed by the science of learning, the course design models effective pedagogy in its structure.

The Understanding SEND module addresses the lack of understanding of the impact of SEN on learning and is aligned to the SEND Code of Practice.

School closures and the response to COVID-19 reduced teacher access to essential professional development activities. Best Practice Network identified these modules to meet the greatest area of need and made them freely available to the schools’ sector.

The Inspiring Digital Enterprise Award (iDEA) is an international programme that helps people of all ages and backgrounds develop digital, enterprise and employability skills. The iDEA platform provides free digital skills education in the form of bite-size modules called "badges" that can be accessed by anyone, anytime, anywhere with an internet connection. When learners complete badges on iDEA, they earn points towards industry-recognised awards that enhance their CV and help them stand out from the crowd. iDEA badges help learners discover and develop new digital skills, inspire new interests and passions and empower them to take control of their future.

Work cannot be carried out on or near the railway without a Controller of Site Safety (COSS) assessing risk so it’s essential they have the skills, knowledge and behaviours to perform their role safely.

The new design of our Controller of Site Safety (COSS) training has enabled us to introduce new immersive technology and create a more immersive, accessible and enjoyable experience for learners.

Each VR scenario was carefully designed to allow learners to experience real-life railway scenarios multiple times to embed safety critical skills and behaviours so mistakes do not occur in real life. 

QuaRijn and TinQwise developed REIN World of Care Academy: a blended learning solution that empowers Dutch geriatric care providers to keep learning and give priority to people-oriented care.

Care providers are doers and have a shared passion for the senior citizens they are caring for. That's why we designed the character of Rein and his world. It’s a way of learning that suits the target group because it makes them curious and motivates them. Rein shows how bringing back personal attention and learning brightens up the life not just of the client but also that of the care provider.
