Having the best technology is just the start of delivering the creativity and learning outcomes possible. A big piece of the puzzle is ensuring that your teaching staff have the knowledge and confidence they need to connect with all learners. From the Apple Teacher programme through to bespoke PLD programmes through our partners through their Apple Professional Learning Specialists we can help you plan and deliver your PLD.
Apple Teacher is a free professional learning program designed to support and celebrate educators who use Apple products for teaching and learning. The program helps educators build skills on iPad and Mac that directly apply to activities with their students, and earn recognition for the new things they learn. It’s easy, flexible, fun and inspiring – just the way professional learning should be.
The program is open to all educators and is a great way for schools to offer free professional learning that their staff members can work through together. When educators sign up for Apple Teacher, they start a self ‑ paced journey through the Apple Teacher Learning Center – a personalised online learning experience that can be accessed from anywhere. Apple Teacher is perfect for educators who are new to Apple products and even those who have been using them for years . Whether teachers have a single device or one for every student, Apple Teacher has the tools they need to use iPad and Mac to connect with all learners.
Apple Professional Learning Specialists help educators build deeper student learning experiences through research-based instructional technology practices.
To support our clients we work with Using Technology Better (UTB) and Mb3 and their experienced specialists to provide the PLD options your school needs.
With a range of Apple PLD courses available you can choose from online or face to face options all developed and delivered by Apple Professional Learning Specialists.
Our partners ensure all training is relevant to the NZ curriculum including training in Kura Kaupapa Maori with Te Reo resources and covering all age levels
Apple Distinguished Schools are centres of leadership and educational excellence that demonstrate Apple’s vision for learning with technology. They are continually innovating with a clear vision for how their technology-rich environments support learning goals.
