  6. Cascading the methodology • Potential for borough Champions to cascade practical skills • On line training programme • Web tools • Case studies and examples • Bank of people in London who have completed the training and used the tools willing to share learning

  7. Building Engagement • Outcomes Measures identified as a key issue for the sector • CSIT self assessments and London Culture Data Access Review confirmed this • Demand was very high • Proven track record of high levels of engagement • Take up has been slightly disappointing
