Historical Association webinar series: Direct history teaching Presenters: Mike Hill and Jacob Olivey In this sixth and final session, Jacob and Mike will explain how history teachers can teach words and phrases very directly to their pupils. They will suggest that 'drill and thrill' – rather than laminated word mats – can make the language of history more accessible and enjoyable for pupils.

This is our new Diploma course in Business Continuity & Resiliency Management. It includes the BCRP (Business Continuity and Resiliency Professional) exam and designation for free ($ 500 value). This course provides an intensive, hands-on workshop experience covering all major aspects for the development, implementation and ongoing management of an effective Business Continuity Plan for corporations, any size of business, healthcare, NGO and government organizations. It is equivalent to our 5-day in-person 'Diploma in BCRP' course. It utilizes a 21st century skills curriculum to enable you to achieve the knowledge and expertise required to succeed in your personal involvement in Business Continuity Planning and within your work environment. The course integrates “Best Principles” for Business Continuity Planning with “Best Practices”, using a case study, real-life scenarios and examples to deepen your understanding. This course is accredited by the National Institute for Business Continuity Management (https://www.NIBCM.net) and leads to their professional designation of Business Continuity & Resiliency Professional (BCRP), as well as our Diploma in Business Continuity and Resiliency Management. In addition, the course provides you with real-life tools for Business Continuity Planning. It follows a case study approach, and engages you in solving meaningful problems with your own organization. The course also provides asynchronous interaction with the course instructor for assignments and any questions that may arise.
