Dear Members
Martin Hawksey started working with ALT over eight years ago on ALT’s first and highly successful open course, ocTEL. As our Chief Innovation, Technology and Community Officer (a job title which served as his opening joke for many presentations), Martin has worked tirelessly to make ALT’s vision become a reality ever since.
ALT is governed by a board of elected and coopted trustees, who form the Board of Trustees. Much of the work of ALT is done on a pro-bono basis by the active members of ALT's Assembly. Supporting the work of our Members is a small and busy, distributed staff team.
Members of ALT and the wider community should note that we will be closed for a staff development day on Wednesday, 6 July 2016. Our staff team will be focusing on development activities for a day in the run up to ALT's Annual Conference in September. We will try and minimise any disruption to our normal operations and respond to enquiries as quickly as possible the following day.
We are pleased to inform members that Dr Tom Palmer, who joined the staff team in 2015 was recruited as ALT's new Membership Manager earlier this month. Tom brings with him a wealth of experience as well as a keen interest in Learning Technology and education. Members will soon start to hear from Tom in his new role as a first point of contact for all membership enquiries including CMALT assessments.
