TELAS Reviewer Certification Workshops

Overview

The face to face Reviewer Certification Workshop is a full-day workshop for those who wish to become TELAS Certified Reviewers.  However the online version of workshop is split across two half days to help with “zoom fatigue”.  Participants will be required to perform pre-work and undertake follow-up reviews to become certified.

The aim of the workshop is to:

  1. Raise awareness of good practices in the design of quality online learning, as rationalized in the TELAS Framework.
  2. Introduce individuals to the affordances for quality online learning design, against the TELAS Framework measures.
  3. Learn how to moderate the assessment of online learning design against the TELAS Framework measures and develop a consistent understanding of how this assessment could be measured so that reliable benchmarking and comparison of performance could be broadly applied.
  4. Encourage recognition of exemplary practice in the design of quality online learning.
  5. Develop knowledge and skills in the use of resources and infrastructure that is required to support the formal accreditation process.
  6. Create a network of champions to promote and progress this initiative.
