OLC Core Cloud and Cloud Plus Training
Before migration
We work with your staff to explain what’s going to happen, what they need to do to prepare, and then show them how the new system will look.
During migration
We conduct further training on the new tools that will be available, and ensure the personalised handover of staff devices.
After migration
We offer bespoke training, working with your school’s SLT to map out all the key topics and content.
Standalone training packages
Working with your Senior Leaders, we can assemble comprehensive training plans to fit exactly what you need. From nrefresher courses on the basics to comprehensive training programmes across your Trust, as well as bespoke training pathways for key staff, we can design and build packages to plug your gaps and raise your skill levels.
