Smart Technologies has launched its first Smart training centre with its partners, VeryPC, in Sheffield, UK. As part of the opening, Andrew Hopton and Alan Robinson of VeryPC will become Smart certified trainers.
The team will use the centre to highlight the importance of technology, multiple pedagogies, and software in learning, to schools and learning providers across Yorkshire.
The Smart training centre will be used to showcase new technology, while supporting existing customers to make the most of their Smart Technologies hardware and software.
Jane Ashworth, UK MD of Smart Technologies, says: "Smart, in collaboration with a number of our partners and existing customers, has assessed the best practices and impacts of technology on active learning programs and have taken the decision to roll out training and support facilities across the country, in a move that we believe will benefit both schools and pupils across the UK."
