Professional Development

QMEA is currently developing an annual professional development plan to outline a range of activities and support for teachers. The plan for the next 12-18 months will focus on the following areas:

  • STEM – Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics
  • Spatial (GPS & GIS) technologies
  • QSMART subject
  • VET qualifications for teachers

Teachers from QMEA schools will be supported (transport, accommodation, possibly TRS) to attend and participate in a wide range of events. Teachers from non-QMEA schools will be invited to participate but will be required to cover their own costs and pay a fee for service to cover venue and catering costs.

The overall aim of the teacher professional development program will be to continue communities of learning with teachers through the use of technologies such as webinars.
