Inside PBS Together: Innovative Training for Practitioners

On the 6th of November, 2024, we hosted a webinar featuring Tracey Lawson, CEO of PBS Together, and Helder Gusso, Head of Educational Technology to showcase how we’re revolutionising PBS training with interactive courses that combine roleplays, case studies, and the best of instructional design and educational technology.

It was a unique opportunity to get an inside look at our upcoming in-person and online workshops, and to learn more about the PBS Bootcamp – a major innovation for those looking to start 2025 on the right foot!

We're excited to share the recording of this session with you. Watch the video to learn more about PBS Together.
