Validating PD Proforma and other stuff.

As promised we have put up our Validating PD proforma after modifying as per Dawn's suggestions.

It is located in our Skydrive in the VIT Professional Development folder and will remain there as a permanent fixture. This is a public folder and does not require you to sign in to your MSN passport/Windows Live! ID to access.

The blog:

The work we have put into the blogs is starting to pay off. It's being utilised by CRTs and others across Victoria now averaging over 500 views a month with a wide variety of pages being accessed.

We have recieved a couple of new members this month, and had more request to be added to our eMail list, because they found the blog online. We have also referred a number of more distant CRTs to a network closer to their location, both Regional and Metro, in the last couple of months.

Network Awareness.

We touched on this is a previous post but we would like CRTs to mention the Networks to schools, teachers, student teachers and other CRT's if the opportunity arises. We aren't using this as a recruitment drive!

It has come to our attention that many regional CRT's still aren't aware that CRT networks are operating throughout Victoria in a variety of locations. With the looming changes coming our way in the way that VIT assesses PD activities, especially moving to a yearly cycle instead of 5 yearly, it is important that CRTs know they have access to the Networks to fulfil their PD requirements if they need them.

We don't think that CRT Networks are for everyone but we DO believe that everyone should be offered the choice on whether to join or not.

Help us make sure everyone gets this choice!
