October Teacher Pro-D Day

Renew your inspiration, learn new skills, and network with other teachers

The University of Victoria is a great place for teachers to spend their professional development time. Join us next year on the province-wide October Pro-D Day for workshops that focus on relevant topics for teachers. Workshop participants will leave with new ideas and the tools to incorporate those ideas into their classrooms.

This is a fantastic opportunity to renew your inspiration, learn new skills, and network with other teachers. You give your best to your students—now let the University of Victoria treat you to the best in professional development.
