The Regional Training Centre
programme helps teachers bring
learning to life with digital technology. A
nationwide network of Apple-approved
Regional Training Centres (RTC) coach
primary and secondary teachers in the
use of Apple’s award-winning software
packages — giving them the know-how
to enliven school lessons with images,
video and sound.
The Regional Training Centre
programme builds on the experience
and achievements of many teachers
already using Apple technology in the
classroom. The programme covers the
UK and Ireland, offering all school staff
the opportunity to attend a course
relevant to their curriculum interests and
needs. Teachers who attend a course at a
Regional Training Centre will discover that
the Mac platform offers robust, stable,
easily integrated solutions and that Macs
can work seamlessly alongside PCs. Apple
technology is famously easy to use, and
beginners can learn quickly and intuitively.
With Apple, the technology never gets in
the way of the creative process.
Already operating as credible training
organisations in the education sector, such
as City Learning Centres, Specialist Schools
or even mobile training organisations,
there are now some 65 RTCs in the UK.
