Your Pathway to Professional Development

Standards and School Effectiveness have improved the way we present our range of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) courses to schools in order to make the process of searching for and booking onto courses easier and more customer friendly.

Spring CPD coversThe improvements include:

  • A one stop shop approach to the new look brochure; a single brochure for each phase that covers the training needs of all school staff, including support staff
  • A consistent, online booking process for all courses, regardless of where the event is being held
  • Course specific contact details; enabling you to reach the Support Officer of your chosen course to ask questions or amend your booking
  • The ability to search online by term, phase, subject and now by theme or role within the school. 

CPD courses are now categorised by a 'school theme'.  For example, if you are preparing for an Ofsted inspection, you might like to select the theme called ‘Self evaluation and Ofsted’ to view all of the courses relating to this subject so that you can choose the one that best meets your needs.

Searching for Training Courses Online

You can search for courses in a number of different ways:

You can browse the entire list of courses or alternatively refine your selection by choosing a phase (Primary, Secondary or All), Term (Autumn, Spring, Summer), Subject (e.g. Assessment, ICT, Maths etc.), Theme (Behaviour, Safeguarding and Pupil Wellbeing) or Role (Headteacher, NQT, Governor etc.). A combination of these can be selected if required otherwise all courses will be shown.

If you know the course code then in the 'quick search' field enter the CPD course code and press 'find'.

By selecting the Course Code of a specific course you will be shown full details of the course including content, outcomes, dates, venue and cost availability. If you then wish to book onto this particular course you can select “Book”.

 

How to book

  • Once you're satisfied that you have found the right course, select 'book'
  • To proceed with the booking you will require your school number and a PIN, which your headteacher will have
  • The online system sends a booking confirmation to your email account.  If you have been placed on a waiting list, you will automatically be booked onto the course when a place becomes available and booking confirmation will be sent by email
  • If a school has forgotten their login details they can use the 'forgotten your login details' option to have this emailed to you automatically
  • If you experience any difficulty with the online booking process, please contact Jason Sugden on telephone number 01438 844798 or fax your booking using the fax form below:

Non-HCC Schools

If a Non-HCC school (Academies, Independent schools and Free schools) is using this system for the first time they will be asked to enter a valid email address and telephone number. They will then be sent a PIN number to the email provided. This PIN number can then be used to sign onto the Online Booking for Training and Conferences.
