'Guide to Successful Induction' Webinar (Primary and Secondary)

Our 'Guide to Successful Induction' training takes place in the form of an interactive webinar rather than a face to face session. This is to make it more widely available to our ECTs as it can be completed from anywhere that you have internet access. The webinar will ensure you understand your role and responsibilities as an ECT throughout your induction. It covers everything you need to know about induction including your termly assessments.

If you haven't attended a session since starting your induction, our next session is being held on Monday 18th September. To book on to this online event, please complete this online form.

A polite reminder that this webinar is mandatory.

All sessions will last for one hour.

*Please note - The webinar is free to all primary and secondary ECTs registered with us on ECT Manager and we expect all ECTs to complete a session at the beginning of their induction. All sessions have the same content and so you only need to attend one date. These sessions are not suitable for NQTs who started their induction before September 2021.
