She also discussed industry updates to the TAQA suite of qualifications. On the 14th, she held an interactive quiz-based "Legislation of Education", which focused on how each legislation applies to different job roles.

She also discussed specific learning disabilities to ensure inclusivity in the classroom.

The "Teacher Training Cycle" is available on our YouTube channel. This session helped educators to conduct an academic year effectively. How to plan their lessons according to the Stages of the Teacher Training Cycle and cater to their student's learning needs were discussed.

Kelly Morgan is one of our Education & Training specialists and is a strong advocate for professional development within education and business, as evident from the list of her qualifications. On the 13th, she discussed the "Embedding Core Elements+" in detail. This session effectively provided educators/student-educators tips on embedding core elements, essential skills, and additional learning needs into each session plan. Then on the 14th, we heard her talk on "Psychology of Learning", in which she looked at some of the best theories/methods to practice in today's teaching & learning climate.

Cordelia Castle has ten years of training experience both in the salon workplace and college environments. Cordelia, aka 'Dee', is our Assessing Specialist and discussed the essential topic of "Evaluation vs Reflection" on 13th October. She explained the differences between the two, as some struggle to differentiate between them.

Her topic on the 14th was as interesting as the first one, "Understanding CPD Through a Wider Lens", in which she discussed the importance of CPD and the things that can be classed as CPD.
