The digital housing showcase event was held at the Wheatley Academy premises in Glasgow on Wednesday 8th February. SQA were invited to participate by setting up a ‘stall’ in the main venue and also facilitating a group discussion forum during the event.<\/p>\n
Organised by the Wheatley Group and supported by SCVO, it was very well attended with representation from housing authorities from all over Scotland; numerous stalls were available from digital partners including Google Garage, DigiKnow, the Blackwood Group, Digi-Pal, Glasgow Kelvin College, RNIB and many others.<\/p>\n
The discussion forums were all very successful with good feedback being provided both verbally and in writing on the notice boards dotted throughout the venue. The SQA discussion group posed a question on providing digital skills for staff, led by myself but ably supported by 2 digital volunteers and a representative of the Wheatley Environmental Team who are the recipients of volunteer support.<\/p>\n
There was a very positive buzz on the day and it was a great opportunity to network, share ideas and form new partnerships. I came away with some very positive feedback on our digital learning guides and a whole bunch of new contacts for future collaboration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
