The training is broken down into individual courses, making it easy to book and attend.
Project Leads are enrolled in all courses listed below, whilst other staff at the school who register for the Training Hub will be enrolled in courses relevant to the Business Role they select.

How will I get access to recordings and resources?
When logged into the Arbor Training Hub, you'll see on your Dashboard that you are enrolled in our "Arbor Foundations" courses . If you started your course before the 27th of February you will need to book and attend live sessions, before being given access to recordings/resources.
Once you have completed the live webinar, and have given some feedback on the session, you will then be enrolled in a new course that is available on your Dashboard. The course name will end in "Resources" (e.g, Managing Staff Profiles Resources). This course contains any recordings and resources, which you download and share with colleagues, or use to refer back to in the future if needed. Searching "Resources" in the search bar will provide you with a list of any training sessions that you have access to the recordings/resources for.
