VCE leadership staff professional development

The VCAA will hold two important professional development opportunities statewide for VCE leadership staff through February and March 2012.

VCE School Leaders briefings give VCE School Leaders, particularly new VCE Coordinators, an overview of current VCE issues, from school assessment to statistical moderation.

Analysing your school’s VCE results sessions are designed to increase the knowledge and skills of school staff in accessing and using VCE assessment results information.

Both opportunities are free of charge.

For the benefit of staff from more remote schools and providers, regional sessions of both professional development opportunities have been scheduled to coincide. Those attending both sessions will need to register separately for each.
