phone link ups

A way of participating in training without leaving your centre.

Webinars

Webinars are conducted via internet and phone with a highly skilled trainer facilitating the session at the other end of the computer and phone. Webinar participants view a PowerPoint presentation delivered by the trainer on their service’s computer and are able to interact, ask questions and share experiences with each other and the trainer via a dialog box and/or over the phone line.
 
They are conducted during work hours, which gives staff the flexibility to participate in training without leaving their service. Services are charged per service, rather than being charged per participant; several staff members from the one service are able to participate in the same training session, so long as they use one computer.

  • Participants must have access to the internet and landline telephone;
  • More than one participant per service can join in webinar if there is access to a speaker phone;
  • Participants book on-line or by faxing through a completed registration form;
  • Participants need to provide an e-mail address to receive webinar briefing papers, agenda and instructions;
  • Webinars generally run for two hours.

Phone Link Ups

A phone link up allows a number of children’s services to come together with a trainer via a telephone conference call. It is a way of participating in training without leaving your centre. All call costs are covered by Children’s Services Central.

Participants are required to pre register for the session. Additional phone link ups will be organised if more participants are interested. If there are two phone link ups in a series, they will be held a few weeks apart so that participants have time to reflect and think about questions that have come up in the meantime. Participants must take part in both link ups.

  • Participants must have access to a landline telephone for an hour (mobile connection not available);
  • More than one participant per service can join in the phone link up if there is access to a speaker phone.
  • Participants must book by phone: 1800 157 818.
  • Participants need to provide an e-mail address to receive phone link up briefing papers, agenda and instructions.
  • Phone link ups generally run for an hour.
  • Any enquiries telephone Contact Inc on (02) 9251 4431 or for the Accreditation link ups contact Community Child Care Co-operative on (02) 8922 6444.
