Invaluable ETC Level 3 CT & OSH Courses

osh-drawingLevel 3 Classroom Teacher Stage 2 workshops commenced this week. The ETC is working with Professional Development Unit to provide quality training that prepares teachers for the presentation required in stage 2.

This year the union has a record five courses  occurring over the week.

Member feedback points to the high level information and the quality presentation from the  PDT presenters Faye Harris and Bill Reid.

It’s especially great to have members coming from down south and up north – where principals as working to ensure teachers have the best opportunity.

Comments from participants indicate the most valuable aspects of the training:

  • Clarification of the reflective practice expectations
  • Practicing the oral presentation
  • Giving and receiving feedback
  • Re-phasing focus questions

Members interested in Level 3 Classroom Teacher Stage 1 – Term 4 Workshops are now open for registration.....be early to avoid disappointment.
