Join us as we give you everything that you could possibly need to feel more confident using the Google tools ahead of the 1-1 device rollout across Scotland. We’ll even give you a fully funded exam voucher to become a Google Certified Educator. Live sessions and online support kicks off on the 14th of September – but you can register anytime up to the 30th of November 2022 and gain access to the support hub, exam vouchers and Workspace Skills.
The programme combines live lessons with an online support hub full of useful information to give you the confidence to plan digital lessons.
Our live sessions kick off this week, but if you miss them, that’s okay. You can still join the programme and stream the lessons in your own time. Regardless, you’ll be given access to our online support hub, which you can refer to when lesson planning.

Why should I become a Google Certified Educator?

You;ll also have lifetime access to a support hub of information that you can refer back to when planning digital lessons.
How does it work?
You’ll be given a Google Classroom and access to the live streams, presentations, checklists of skills, gifs, tailored support, and free access to the fantastic practice examples courtesy of Canopy’s Workspace Skills.
