‘The most satisfying thing is when we're able to inspire people in using online resources', says Sarah Milligan, Training Coordinator for Macmillan English Campus. With Joanna Trzmielewska, Sarah runs the training department, helping teachers to use Macmillan English Campus by giving online and face-to-face training sessions.

Both Sarah and Joanna are experienced English teachers and have taught using the English Campus, so they are very well placed to provide advice and ideas. There's been a lot going on in the training department over the last year. Here are a few of the most recent updates to the service we offer to English Campus users.
