In-Depth Professional Development in Gifted Education for 2012 in New Zealand
Are you thinking the time has come when you’re ready to take your interest in gifted education a little further? We’d very much like to encourage you in this. The more teachers who have specific training in this field, the better we are able as a country to lift the quality of provision for our gifted learners. Thus, knowing that it’s round about now that many teachers are planning their PD for next year, we decided to survey the options open to those who want to extend their knowledge and skills in this field. We’ve listed the options we’ve found here: Indepth PD for 2012.pdf
