I make a point of keeping an updated Google doc tracking all of the CPD I do. I share it with my principal. I think it is important for CPD to be acknowledged and recognised in school. Even if it is as a result of me offering that information without being asked 😅 #edchatie

I'm lucky enough to live in the town where our local education centre is situated. If I'm not attending courses in person, I'm online! I completed/attended over 40 online during our first lockdown. It was fantastic to be able to access so much knowledge and upskill when it was needed most. #edchatie
