Apple Teacher.
Apple Teacher is a free professional learning programme designed to support and celebrate educators using Apple products for teaching and learning. As an educator, you can build skills on the iPad and Mac that directly apply to activities with your learners and earn recognition for the new things you learn. It’s easy, flexible, entertaining and inspiring—exactly how professional further training should be.
The programme is open to all educators and offers schools and districts an outstanding opportunity to provide staff with a free further education offering. Sign up to Apple Teacher and start your self-paced journey in the Apple Teacher Learning Center which offers an individual learning experience and can be accessed from anywhere.
Apple Teacher is ideal for those educators without any experience of Apple products as well as those who have been using them for many years. It doesn't matter if you only have one device to hand or one for each student, Apple Teacher gives you the tools you need to connect with all your students on an iPad and Mac.
