Professional development for teachers

The Victorian parliament offers a range of opportunities for teachers looking to engage in professional learning, which are designed to enhance professional knowledge and practice, and support student learning.

There are a range of learning opportunities on offer, including seminars, conferences, workshops and online learning, with particular relevance to Civics and Citizenship and Legal Studies.

Each professional learning session addresses the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers (APST). The standards that are most often addressed through participation in parliament’s professional learning opportunities include:

• APST 2 Professional knowledge: Know the content and how to teach it
• APST 6 Professional engagement: Engage in professional learning
• APST 7 Professional engagement: Engage professionally with colleagues, parents/carers and the community.

We're always happy to hear from teachers who would like to discuss their requirements when introducing Civics and Citizenship into the classroom.

Whether you're looking for advice on the use of our resources or subject matter expertise, we're here to help.
