C2k Google G Suite

Google G Suite Support Sessions

EA C2k eLearning Team will be offering support sessions to help schools get started with Google G Suite. These will be live, thirty-minute sessions providing support for teachers starting out with Collaborate Ultra. Places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come-first served basis and are open to Primary, Post-Primary, Special school and EOTAS.

Please note these sessions are unlikely to be sufficient in themselves as stand-alone training. They are designed to complement existing help materials and to act as a springboard for further exploration. Most benefit will be derived by integrating the support sessions with other materials available through Google Support Site and suggested during the sessions.

In order to support as many schools and centres as possible, a maximum of three teachers per school can join each session. We will seek to provide additional sessions should demand exceed the places currently available.

A confirmation email will be sent to all successful applicants prior to the course date. As our courses are in huge demand we would appreciate if you could inform us prior to any EA C2k training courses if you cannot attend.  This will allow us to provide a training opportunity to someone on the course reserve list.
