Would world-class BBC Learning packs make an interesting addition to your institute library or classroom?
AEShareNet is delighted to announce that BBC Learning has become our latest member.
"The BBC Learning items make an exciting addition to our catalogue which now features over 20,000 resources for educational use, " said Carol Fripp, General Manager, AEShareNet.
Penny Foremen of BBC Learning said, "We've selected the most engaging and comprehensive programmes from our Language, Business and Adult Studies catalogue to suit Australian corporations, TAFE, VET and Community Educators."
"AEShareNet is the ideal vehicle to licence our resources in Australia because of their ability to provide a central place for educators to search for resources and obtain the rights for use."
More than just videos and CD-Roms, BBC Learning kits also contain comprehensive trainer's guides and self study notes.
Highlights from the range include:
- the ground-breaking Back to the Floor series that puts the big bosses - unsheltered and unprotected - right at the bottom of their organisational chart and provides valuable insights into corporate management, communication and efficiency;
- Health and Safety at Work, a self-paced interactive CD-Rom covering eight core health and safety topics;
- The Confidence Zone series that helps boost self-confidence in all kinds of situations and at all levels. It offers powerful but simple techniques that everyone can use and adapt.
To locate the catalogue on AEShareNet, go to the AEShareNet home page and type BBC in the search box.
