Professional Learning Hub Free April Workshops




Curtin's School of Education is starting to roll out the first weeks of its Professional Learning Hub's PD workshops for teachers, and we wanted to provide STAWA members with these 3 workshops in the month of April FOR FREE!!

We are keen to get feedback from teachers and would appreciate their involvement in a brief survey at the conclusion of the sessions.

As the rest of the 2016 schedule is finalised we will keep you up-to-date with this program.
