Seems to be sold out - there is a 'waiting list' for 'teacher'! I've just done couple of online course on teaching with the RPi but nor sure I want to risk that yet!On 21/03/17 11:59, M. J.

A bit of networking can't do any harm can it?! :] Have sent a message to organisers, but seems all tickets are taken, save perhaps teachers... ! 50 people is quite a lot - the 'guest list' looks interesting too... !! Cheers, Michael.Indeed, I will see if I can add this to the related events page. There are lots of events listed on the Computing st school forum, so I would really encourage teachers to look in to signing up to this. PaulGood plan - letting people know there are organisations out there as either providers or supporters (eg. whatever this eva foundation is, or indeed 2times.do) who can take some of the load off, should be a major plus factor for them! And then the Jams can provide ongoing support and facilities to keep the activity going! MJEThis is what i would like as the overall outcome, a wider community, try and get as many people together with these technical skills and expertise, it means if someone for example wants a website or specific features, that community can help provide expertise for them. It does seem there is a skills shortage, quite which skills are short is difficult to determine, i think these skills are out there, just maybe not always on paper, just people with experience and a drive / passion for something.Paul
