VIRTUAL
Using the Sustainable Development Goals as a framework, we consider the importance of teacher and principal professional development as a key contributor to improved student learning outcomes. The Laurier-sponsored Educator and Leadership Institute (ELI) was formed in 2015 to support the capacity of educators in Haiti, Nepal, and Egypt. We will share how ELI has supported the professional learning of more than 2,000 educators in these contexts and how individuals, organizations, and businesses in the Waterloo Region have been part of this initiative.
Steve Sider and Judy Halpern are faculty members in the Laurier Faculty of Education. Their teaching and research have a focus on global education. They are two of the coordinators of the Laurier-sponsored Educator and Leadership Institute which provides professional learning courses and workshops to educators in Haiti, Nepal, and Egypt.
Registration is open on Eventbrite.ca. Registrants will receive an e-mail 24 hours before the start of the program with an invitation to join.
