Hello everyone,
The DEECD's CRT Professional Learning Support Initiative is up for review and we are currently unable to apply for PD in 2013. Unfortunately this means that a full-day PD in Term 1 is unlikely.
At this time it is our intention to still run this PD, just at a later date to achieve the target 4 x full-day PD workshops/seminars per year.
Our own funds have a healthy balance thanks to the booking fees we charge so we will still be able to provide 2.5 hour evening PD workshops in term 1 2013!
Regards,
Melinda Lichnovsky-Klock
Wodonga CRT Support Network Coordinator.

Shepparton CRT Network Coordinator changeover.
Hello everyone!
It feels like the end of an era with Wendy, the Corodinator of the Shepparton CRT Support Network, stepping down yesterday. I have assumed the role of the Shepparton CRT Network Coordinator as well as remaining the Coordinator for the Wodonga CRT Support Network. As you may also have noticed from the main blog, I have also started my own YouTube channel.
I just want to assure all of you that despite the extra work involved with these things the Wodonga Network will continue to be run in the same way as it always has been. There will only be minor changes in anything we do and the chances are that if I don't point them out you'll never even notice! The only definitive change will be a bit of the juggling of scheduling because I just can't be in 2 places at once!
We will still be holding 4 x full day PDs each year, continue offering 2.5 hour evening PD sessions as the opportunity arises and also continue holding our monthly meetings.
My dedication to all of you remains just as strong as it has always been!
Regards,
Mel.

Sue King Feedback Video and Report.
Apart from a couple of problems with the venue we have been working on fixing for a while now, the workshop finished up with a very positive reaction from those who attended!
Comments in our videos are taken directly from feedback forms left by participants so it's easy to see the kind of response that Sue King is able to generate in a Workshop. As you can see in the video, Sue King has a knack for making a highly educational day something that's also fun. The bubble blowing and sign language sections proved particularly enjoyable for the participants!

We
had a lot of new faces again this time which was great to see! We hope you
all enjoyed and benefitted from our presenter selection and organization
of the day. We also hope all you travellers, some who travelled a very long way, made it home safely!
Estimated Cost per Head value: $225.00 - $355.00 (based on similar commercial PDs)
Cost per head we paid: $61.78
Cost per head for CRTs? $10.00

Free online Professional Development - Rego and PD presentation video..
In August 2012 the Wodonga CRT Support Network was lucky enough to host Dawn Colcott, VIT's Manager of Professional Learning, as a guest speaker in a specially convened meeting.
The topic was Registration and Professional Development dealing with the 2012 changes to the registration process and requirements.
From 2011 onwards, September 30 became a significant date in the teaching profession calendar. The time frame has changed for payment of annual fees and renewal of full registration.
Full registration requires all teachers to maintain their professional practice and suitability to be a teacher through the renewal of registration process.
To be able to teach effectively for student learning, a casual relief teacher should have current professional knowledge and practice.
The Institute recognises that CRTs sometimes have less opportunity to know about and engage in professional development activities.
You can find the rest of this presentation here:
http://wodongacrtsupportnetwork.blogspot.com.au/p/rego-and-pd-video-dawn-colcott.html
This is a full 60 minutes of video!
For those of you still looking for a little guidance:
This will be "teacher identified" PD and no Pdi PASS code is offered.
You can start by referencing this against Standard 7:
