Beginning Teacher Conferences again on offer in Victoria

Early childhood professionals at the start of their career journey are again being supported with the Victorian Government Department of Education’s Beginning Teacher Conference series. 

Designed to support early childhood teachers (ECTs) in their first year and those working in funded kindergarten programs who are expected to graduate within the next 12 months, the Beginning Teacher Conferences support professionals to strengthen their practice and develop valuable professional networks with peers.  

The upcoming Series 3 conferences will feature expert evidence-based presentations focusing on building and nurturing professional identity. 

ECTs will also learn how to engage in meaningful conversations with families to support inclusion through trauma-informed strategies.

Networking opportunities will be included in the sessions, giving participants the opportunity to unpack relevant problems of practice through deep-dive discussions with their peers.

BTC series 3 commences on Thursday 12 September 2024 (online) and continues through to Thursday 31 October 2024 (in-person at the Victorian Teaching Academy, 41 St Andrews Place, East Melbourne).
