EASPD Spring Knowledge Café - Knowledge Hub: What's new?
This 2023 Spring Knowledge Café, EASPD is introducing an upgraded e-learning platform, Knowledge Hub, for professionals working in the social and disability sectors. Equipped with Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC), this platform is open to all upon free registration.
On 8th March 2023, 14h00-15h00 CET, during the Knowledge Café webinar we will present this updated e-learning platform. This online session will include perspectives of people who have already taken a training course via the Knowledge Hub, those who have contributed to the creation of a MOOC. Alongside, you will get to hear from trainers on how they managed to adapt their courses to an online setting.
