ETFO Provincial PD Opportunities
Did you know that both Daily and Long-Term Occasional Teachers are eligible to attend ETFO Provincial's conferences and PD sessions? Though these are offered in Toronto, your travel costs (Via Rail business is most convenient), shared-room accommodation, resource, dependent care and meal costs are covered by a small registration fee, usually around $50. If the session takes place on a school day, ETFO Provincial will pay release costs: for a LTO that is the cost of the OT who takes over or for a Daily OT, this means they will pay your daily rate to attend. Check www.etfo.ca on a frequent basis to see what is being offered for your personal self-directed professional development.
Ontario College of Teachers' Survey
ETFO members are reminded not to participate in the current OCT Surveys. The College is not the advocate of the profession - that is legal the role of the federations. OCT is the legal regulatory and disciplinary agency of the profession. For details about these surveys and our position please see http://www.etfo.ca/adviceformembers/octsurveys/pages/default.aspx
