Holocaust Education Trust

Has anyone ever done one of the courses organised by these guys?

I'm considering doing the Teaching the Holocaust course in August

I wanted to do the year long course a couple of years ago, but then various things happened, family bereavements, changes in relationships etc. and I never got round to it.

It's still something I would very much like to do some time.

I'm intrigued.

Who is this organisation and what type of courses do they provide?

This is their website.

The course I was (and still am) hoping to do was a year long one which involved a study trip to Krakow (Auschwitz) and a visit to Jerusalem (Yad Vashem centre) as well as seminars.

It must be sponsored as the fees for teachers (which include all travel and accommodation) are relatively low.
Maybe August 2013 for me.

Well worth organising for him to speak to the students but he's booked up well in advance.
