This month’s talk will be given by Ian Lynch. You may remember that Ian gave us a talk on OpenOffice.org a couple of years ago when he was education lead on the OOo project. Ian is director of new business development at The Learning Machine Ltd (TLM). TLM is an Awarding Body Accredited by Ofqual, DELLS and CCEA, the regulators for qualifications in England Wales and Northern Ireland. TLM is responsible for developing and managing a new and innovative family of qualifications called The INGOTs (International Grades – Open Technologies).
Ian will be talking about the INGOTs qualifications and, no doubt, many of the other things he does to further the goals of free software in the education arena.
The meeting officially starts at 7:00pm, but the room will be open for coffee, tea and chat from 6:00pm. Afterwards, we usually go to the Victoria pub, behind the Town Hall, for more geeky chatter.
