3. Why Virtual networking?
Open educational resources
making collaboration a ‘no brainer’
Putting the ‘Professional’ back in professional development
Blending training events with virtual platforms
Digital video
Local ‘heroes’

4. DEMONSTRATION PROJECTs in serbia
2016 with education trust
Professional development for 60 vocational teachers to support the development and application of digital and on-line teaching and learning resources
Sharing of resources
Networking of teachers involved in project
2017 with centre for educational policy
Development of tools and training to support piloting of e-portfolio for vocational teachers and trainers

5. Key issues to be considered in selecting a pilot:
Which and how many vocational teachers will be recruited to participate in the network?
Which on-line and face-to-face interactions will teachers participate in and how will these improve teaching and learning in vocational schools?
How can the network continue to develop over the next 2 to 3 years?
Exactly what resources or support are needed to achieve the above results?
