There are opportunities for teachers to reimagine how education is delivered to meet the evolving needs of their learners. The VIT encourages teachers to develop their skills in online teaching and learning, including the use of digital technologies and hybrid learning models. 

Professional learning

As a registered teacher or early childhood teacher, you are required to engage in at least 20 hours of professional development (PD) activities each year in order to renew your registration. Professional learning can be undertaken in a variety forms, including webinars, online modules, professional conversations, professional readings and research.

Remember, after engaging in a professional development activity take the time to reflect on how the learning will impact your teaching. Ask yourself the following questions

  • what have you learned that you can use to develop your teaching knowledge and / or practice? 
  • how have you / will you apply your learnings to your teaching practice?
  • what impact has / will the new knowledge have on learning outcomes?
