IB Online Professional Development eNewsletter
April 2012
Welcome message Dear Educators, I am very pleased to welcome you to this first edition of our newly-designed eNewsletter. We hope it will become one of the main ways you keep up to date with our latest online workshops and other forms of online professional development on offer from the IB. So far in 2012, interest in online workshops has been significantly higher than we saw this time last year. We have some exciting plans over the coming few months and we’re keen to hear your feedback as much as possible, so do send us your thoughts on the eNewsletter or anything related to online PD. Send your comments to ibid@ibo.org. Warm regards, Matthew James Head of Online PD
NEW! Online workshops registration process We are pleased to announce the launch of the new online workshops registration process, facilitated by the IB’s registration system. While this registration system is new to online workshops, it has been used successfully for face to face workshops over the past 3 years and will therefore be familiar to IB school coordinators. We trust that this upgrade will improve your workshop registration experience and allow you to manage your own enrolment. Some of the changes to the online registration process that are important to take note of are: -
IB School Coordinators log into the registration system via IBIS Individual participants must create a registration account at the first visit Name and email changes can be made by the person who submitted the registration within the account Billing information is always accessible via the ‘Billing’ page in your registration account Online workshop certificates will be published 4 weeks after the workshop ends and can be downloaded from the ‘Certificates’ tab in your Regis account To support you during this transition, visit the registration FAQs page. If you have any further questions, contact us at ibid@ibo.org. Page 1
