A presentation discussing the plans for the online training course led by IADT. This session was part of a ‘training for trainers’ event at SWPS April, 2023. Co-ordinated by faculty from SWPS’s School of Form with particular interests and experiences in developing innovative digital learning experiences. The training focused on creating effective strategies for pedagogical development based on what has been learned at the previous training activities. Consequently, it was more exploratory and co-creative so that all the participants were able to contribute as much as ‘trainers’ as ‘trainees’. The goal was to co-draft practical training guidelines and materials that can then be used in each partner institution to support the development of accessible immersive learning methods.
