Professional Learning

GTAC offers a range of Professional Learning events for teachers, pre-service teachers and laboratory technicians throughout the year. Ranging from support for first-time Biology teachers through to forums where leading scientists share their stories and expertise, attendees consistently comment that events are engaging, contemporary and have a significant impact on their practice. Teachers can also count their hours of attendance towards their VIT professional development requirement.
