Virtual Classrooms are longer sessions looking at broader topics in detail, but still delivered online with a flexible approach to suit early years providers. The courses take place over two or three 90-minute sessions.

Alliance Insights are hour-long training and networking sessions offer an insight into practical topics as well as a chance to discuss issues with attendees. Prices start at £12 for Alliance members and £24 for non-members.

Alliance Connects are free online networking sessions for anyone involved in the early years. Sessions are often aimed at different groups such as baby and toddler groups, childminders, leaders, managers and parents.
