Erica - erica@australianprogress.org.au
Online platform: Zoom
Zoom: We will be meeting via Zoom, and sharing training materials over Google Docs and Google Slides. If you have access to a computer or laptop, we recommend you join the training by computer to make navigating the materials easier. A dial-in number will also be supplied in case you do not have access to a computer, or you can use the Zoom phone app (iOS | Android).
Resources
During the training we will use the screen share function to share slides, as well as navigating between Zoom and an interactive slide deck. We will also use Google Docs for worksheets, the training Welcome Pack, and other supporting materials. Google Sheets may be used to share contact information amongst the cohort.
Early access to slides
A view-only version of the slide deck can be supplied early if this supports your participation. Any copies of the slides provided will include alt-text / image descriptions. Some guest speaker slides cannot be provided in advance. If you need early access to materials, please mention this in the ‘access needs’ question when registering.
Breaks
In each day of the training (seven hours each), we will be taking two 15-20 minute breaks, one 45 minute lunch break as well as several 5 minute ‘energiser’ breaks. There will be no more than 100 minutes of content without a break. The timing of these breaks can be adjusted on the day to adapt to the needs of the group.
Captions
We will have auto captions enabled in Zoom. Live professional captioning can be organised if needed - please let us know when registering if you need live professional captioning.
Breakout rooms
This training uses breakout rooms throughout, with group sizes ranging from pairs through to groups of five for discussions and workshop activities.
Auslan interpretation by request
If you need Auslan interpreters, please let us know when registering. Because of the high demand for interpreters, we cannot guarantee interpreters will be available, especially if registering less than a week before the training.
Video and chat norms
We encourage everyone to have your cameras on if you feel comfortable, but do not require you to do so. Participants will be asked to introduce themselves in chat, and to enter responses in the chat throughout the training.
Tech and access support
The lead facilitator of the training will be able to assist with any tech support, including Zoom, the slide deck, and access. Depending on the size and needs of the cohort, we may have a second team member present to act as dedicated tech/access support.
Recordings and post-training resources
We do not supply recordings from the training as standard, but can record sections of presentation if needed to facilitate your engagement. This is not a substitution for attendance to the training, and will not be offered to participants who do not attend the training. You will receive a copy of the presenter slide deck, interactive slide deck, and other resources.
Other supports
When you register for the event, we will ask if you have any access needs. If you need something in place that is not already arranged, or if you need more information about any part of the event, we will work with you to provide that.
