In March last year, we wrote about how to get IB experience<\/a>. In the article we addressed the challenge faced by teachers who want to work in an IB school but can\u2019t because they haven\u2019t done so before. These teachers are justifiably frustrated, but there are ways to forge a path in this direction without being hired first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A welcome update<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Along with the tips we shared before, there is now another option for you since the IB has just introduced some self-paced learning modules online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Teacher Horizons we are really pleased to see this, since improved accessibility can only be good news for our community. And it\u2019s good to see that the introductory price tag is lower than other courses at 125USD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently there are fairly limited options, most of which are focused on how to mark internal assessments, but we hope this will be the beginnings of a more developed programme, providing there is enough uptake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The IB outlines some of the benefits of these modules on their website:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
