Your Union has negotiated two paid PD days.
Day 1 is mandatory. There are several options for Day 2.
Day 1 (Mandatory): Throughout the year, the Board will post training modules on the Employee Portal. The Board will pay members following completion of all mandatory on-line training modules. The training modules will be available throughout the school year, with compensation being paid on completion of all modules by year's end.
Day 2 (Optional): April 8, 2011 - Althouse College opportunity: This joint effort between the Board and your Union will be a full day event with a keynote speaker, a message from the Board and a variety of workshops from which to choose. Check the newsletter and First Class for additional options.
The combination of the online training and April 8, will count as 2 days of Occasional Teaching.
