Mentoring
As part of the project it is anticipated that colleagues new to ITT may wish to be partnered with one of the core team, who could act as a mentor during the first year of the course. This could involve informal contact during the year, or even allow for the possibility of visits to each other’s institution to share practice. If you would be interested in this level of support, please contact in the first place the Historical Association at www.history.org.uk or mstiles@history.org.uk

HTEN conference
In July 2004 an introduction to the materials from the website happened at the HTEN conference in Canterbury. This involved two workshops based on the first four units. There are plans to run further workshops at the 2005 HTEN conference in Nottingham (go to www.hten.org.uk for details about attending the conference).
