Full session plan

Recap of last session

In the first training session we looked at an overview of what PlaceCal and CTPs are, identified the scope of our PlaceCal sites, set up our partnership tracker and laid the groundwork for making connections in the community. In this session, we’re going to look more practically at how PlaceCal works and put some of the homework into practice by adding our first partners to our PlaceCal sites.
