I have had many people ask if I would offer another section of my PracticalEdTech.com webinar series How To Use Google Drive In School. I have scheduled another offering of the series in October. The series will meet on October 8, 15, and 22nd at 7pm Eastern.
How To Use Google Drive In School is a three hour interactive course for educators who want to learn how to use Google Drive (Google Docs, Presentations, Forms, Spreadsheets). This course covers everything from the basics of document creation to using scripts to automate workflow in Google Drive.
Registration is limited to 25 people per course. For only $87 all participants receive digital how-to guides, access to three hours of live webinar training, access to all webinar recordings, and access to a dedicated course discussion forum.
The cost of the three part course is $87. While the webinar series is not free it is significantly less than cost of flying me to your school for the day or the cost of attending one of the Google Apps Summits. Click here to register. The next section is scheduled to meet on October 8, 15, 22 at 7pm Eastern. Registration is limited to 25 seats per section. Click here to register today!

About the cost and my decision to advertise it on my blog:
Every time that I advertise one of these webinars I get messages from people who are upset that I am advertising it here and or that I am charging for it. I understand why some people feel that way. The purpose of this blog and my goal for years has always been to help people use free technology in their classrooms. Google Drive is free for anyone to use. However, my time for teaching isn’t free. Likewise, I pay licensing fees to GoToTraining and to Wistia for hosting all of the media content of the courses.
