News from ClickView

Hi Glen,

Following up from your content requests to Arti, just sharing a new 5-part series we’ve produced with accompanying teacher/student resources: Spotlight on Cryptocurrency

We’ll also have a 1-minute explainer on NFTs in the library next month so keep an eye out for that.

Lastly I’ve just heard news that the Production team has a vaping project on the schedule. ETA unknown at the moment, but generally speaking a CV original series can take around 9 months from commissioning to release date due to the meticulous research and production revision processes required.

Kindest,

Amanda Rossi, Advisor
