Apple, together with Apple Solutions Experts, set up a series of
Regional Training Centres (RTCs) to help teachers and lecturers
develop their digital media skills.
The RTCs deliver courses demonstrating the potential of digital
media for effective learning delivery, and which enable educators
to become confident in its use. These courses are open to all
teachers from all LEAs, and are free of charge.
RTCs focus their training on the curriculum-enhancing
opportunities of using iLife, the multimedia software that comes
with every new Mac, and features Apple's award-winning iMovie,
iPhoto, iDVD, GarageBand and iWeb applications. Teachers are also
introduced to more advanced software applications, including Final
Cut Express and Logic Express to help give older students a
headstart in preparing for careers in the creative industries.

Courses are free of charge and run on a regular basis.
