STA members qualify for a 15% discount with GoToWebinar and GoToMeeting

STA has taken a proactive stance to further help ATCs and tutors with the delivery of online courses during COVID-19, by partnering with LogMeIn to provide members with an exclusive 15% discount on their market leading GoToWebinar and GoToMeeting communication platforms.

Brett Preston, STA’s Director of Digital Services says: “With all swimming pools now closed, virtual learning is now a real option for leisure operators who want to make the most of the current downtime by training employees and save on future backfilling staffing costs. As well as for ATC’s who want to continue to operate remotely without face-to-face contact with learners – and crucially maintain an income.

“To facilitate this, we wanted to find a trusted IT-comms supply partner, and with GoToWebinar we know from experience that it is one of the best tools on the market for interactive webinar conferencing,” confirmed Brett. “The platform is really easy to set-up and manage, it comes with a host of interactive features and importantly for tutors who might be nervous about delivering online courses for the first-time, free training and a library of support resources are readily available.”

Ravinder Sandhu, STA’s Head of Marketing added: “By partnering with LogMeIn, STA’s ATCs and tutors can be confident in taking the next step from the training room to online during this pandemic – and even in the future for the theoretical elements of unregulated training courses and regulated swimming teaching, lifeguarding and pool plant qualifications. GoToMeeting also provides a fantastic communications tool for ATCs wanting to keep in regular contact with staff and colleagues during this unique time.”

STA tutors / members wishing to take advantage of the GoToWebinar and GoToMeeting 15% discount and deliver online courses during this time simply need to email marketing@sta.co.uk with their ATC name, email address, contact number and chosen package.
