5. Regional and national engagement
Title of presentation (Insert > Header & Footer > Notes and Handouts > Header > Apply to all)
Jisc is based in seven UK nations and regions with dedicated account managers for each organisation so that…
…you have a complete view of Jisc services and their benefits and ways to shape future services
…you get the greatest savings and efficiencies and ways to improve the learning, teaching and research experience
Your account manager is your one stop shop for Jisc in that they can guide you through the many layers of what we offer. We might not know all the answers, but we will know someone who does! In this way you only have to deal with one person in the first instance to direct your query, and your account manager will make the necessary investigations on your behalf.

Access Training
Face to face training session delivered by subject specialist on mobile apps for learning
Prior to session only 15% of respondents were confident about using mobile learning technology in the classroom
After the session this had increased to 77%
Sharon Wallace, Quality Manager at Access Training, said “The support from staff at JISC has been excellent.  Recently all our delivery team received CPD training on how technology can be integrated into sessions to engage and motivate learners.  This has given the team confidence to create a more innovative training environment and feedback from learners has been extremely positive”
