ATEQ organizes a number of events throughout the year where teachers can come together to learn and share with one another. Each year we present our Springboards conference, organized to give teachers an opportunity to get together and learn from one another. We also offer many other events to promote professional development for ELA teachers. Recently, we have offered a number of virtual and in-person PD opportunities in conjunction with organizations such as the Quebec Writers’ Federation and Canadian Children’s Book Week.
Your input is important to us!
If you would like to propose an event or have ideas for virtual PD, please email us. We look forward to the possibility of collaborating and showcasing you and your ideas.
