I am honestly not certain how relevant this course would be to you, though I feel there is now a close link between information services and any kind of internet teaching. So I am taking the liberty of telling you about the internet training course I have been running for 10 years now, in case you might be considering moving into e-teaching. It is the certificate in Online Education & Training, from the Institute of Education, University of London, run globally with regional groups so there is always international and local discussion. You'll find it a forum for rich structured collaborative learning with UK and world-wide educators. The course has been running 10 years, and we now use a range of multimedia materials and various platforms to consider different methods of teaching and syllabus design issues, closely tied to workplace needs. It gives a real insight into the needs of e-learning provision from the student point of view, as well the institutional. It starts November 8th for 20 non-intensive weeks, using FirstClass for communication, our website for resources, and various VLEs for experience. The optional meeting in London on day 1 includes a talk on how Mobile Technology is already in use for Education.
