I attended a training session with the AET and I would like the PowerPoint slides/ videos
The training and resources are a licensed product and hence not freely available. Your AET Trainer who delivers the training has ownership over the decision as to whether a PDF or paper handout of the slides should be shared. This decision is based on your learning need and whether sharing a PDF or paper handout of the slides will meet that learning need. If you are looking for support on the practical implementation of what you have learnt, then implementing the tools in the practical support pack is the best way forward. The practical support pack contains all the information about why, when, and how to use the tools. There is also free information available on our website and on both the AET YouTube channel and the AET AYE YouTube channel.
