On-line workshops

These are held on an ad-hoc basis in response to perceived need and/or requests from MoLeNET projects
The on-line events are "presented" using Instant Presenter and backed up by the MoLeNET Moodle.
Initially on-line event invitations will go only to staff working for MoLeNET project partner organisations and a maximum of 50 colleagues can participate in each event. However for some events invitations will include members of the Wider MoLeNET community. Also all events are recorded and the recordings are available on the MoLeNET Moodle. Some of these recordings will also be made available on this site.
