Teachers in Victoria are required to engage in professional learning each year as part of their registration with the Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT). This week’s podcast looks at all the details including:
•\tHours required
•\tThe time period. This period runs from October 1 to September 30 of the following year.
•\tDomains of Learning which include the three domains of the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers (APST).
•\tTypes of acceptable professional learning activities
•\tHow the PD needs to be recorded.
This is crucial information for all teachers but particularly relief teachers who are responsible for sourcing and recording their own PD. A podcast not to be missed.
