Overall Assessment:

What was best about the event?

Lovely resources and useful suggestions.
Demonstrations of resources.
Actually seeing the progression from 3D models to abstract concepts.
Thorough presentation of how the products can be used and exactly what you are getting when you buy. Looked very useful.
It was good to see what resources exist commercially and it made me think about making something similar and think about whether our service could benefit from a commercial pack.

What, if anything, could have been improved about the event?

Pace of delivery was rather slow for first resource, 'Tactile Town'.
Felt there was a bit too much time on the Tactile Town.
Seeing more products that are available. It was a lot of time on two specific things which I felt didn't really need such a long time spent on them.

Any comments about future topics to showcase products by APH?

Showcasing resources for children with more residual vision.
Yes, they are obviously made carefully, with lots of research and thought behind them so it would be good to see a much broader range in less detail (or faster pace perhaps).

What other CPD training would you like the SSC to provide?

Demonstrate functional assessment resources - particularly anything new Continue as you are doing. Your courses always make me think "Ooh, I want to hear about that one." Can't think of any you haven't covered off the top of my head - interested in health and wellbeing of children, supporting parents. Difficulties of teaching certain letters in braille and any tips would be useful at this present time for me.

Any comments on the technical aspects

The presentation froze and I had to log in again. Don’t think my work device likes Zoom.
Everything worked well.
Very good on this occasion.
Zoom isn't so handy for me as we aren't allowed to download it on our work laptops or iPads so I watched the event on the small screen of my phone.
