City of Glasgow College Wins Award With Digital Learning Hub<\/h1>\n

Congratulations to Klik2learn partners City of Glasgow College for scooping the Digital Learning Award at the College Development Network (CDN) Awards.<\/h3>\n

The CDN Awards are a key event in Scotland’s further education calendar and recognise the talent, skills and achievements of colleges, their staff and learners.\u00a0The winners were announced at a virtual celebration, hosted by Elaine C. Smith on Thursday 3 December 2020.<\/p>\n

The college\u2019s online learning collaboration with Glasgow based Klik2learn secured the Digital Learning Award, sponsored by JISC. The partnership sees content from the college\u2019s suite of vocational programmes made available within a digital learning hub developed by Klik2learn. The first courses to be developed were aimed at students of English Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL), enabling the college to meet local demand and continue recruiting students from overseas during the pandemic.<\/p>\n

“As the only edtech company to feature at the awards, Klik2learn’s partnership with City College Glasgow illustrates the potential of collaboration between public and private sector to drive forward technological change in the education sector. As a company, we welcome any interested parties to get in touch.”<\/h4>\n<\/blockquote>\n

David Cullen, Associate Dean for ESOL and Languages at City of Glasgow College, said:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe learning hub provides up to date resources for teachers and trainers that can support learning in an innovative and stimulating environment. It is an incredible opportunity to make ESOL learning more relevant and accessible to our many students, both at home and abroad, while increasing employment opportunities. Winning this award is testimony to our ongoing successful partnership with Klik2learn and my congratulations go to all concerned.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
