The qualification is aimed at educators who want to boost their development and understand the skills to teach in online environments.
Ms Farr said: “It was a wonderful evening. The qualification has not only provided me with me new skills, but with a greater insight into pupils’ learning experiences.”
Jacqueline Daniell, chief executive of Wey Education, added: “We are proud of the achievements of our teachers who have taken part, and I am delighted we have been able to gather a variety of people together for the evening to recognise the benefits that online teaching presents.”
