AOK was formed in February 2001 to provide educational consultancy to Local Authority Education Departments, schools and colleges. This involved the development of online material, advising on learning environments, the delivery of training and working with likeminded partners to provide solutions for education. In August 2005, AOK decided to fill a gap in the education marketplace by developing a
nd delivering CPD for secondary school teachers that not only concentrated on what the teachers do in the classroom but also is subject specific. To achieve this, AOK employ highly qualified tutors, normally with SQA experience. We now deliver CPD on most subjects and, more recently, on the Curriculum for Excellence (CfE). AOK has invested in a custom built training facility in Glasgow city centre. The room has 14 networked Personal Computers, all with Internet access. There is also a trainers PC, a large screen and a Smartboard Interactive whiteboard. On average, we deliver “face to face” CPD to 1000 teachers per year. In addition, we travel to schools and colleges to deliver “in house” training.
