These conferences are aimed at members who are in their first few years of teaching. Content covered includes:
- processes for achieving accreditation as a Proficient teacher with NESA, including the gathering of appropriate evidence and using lesson observations through the first years of teaching
- advice for teachers already maintaining their accreditation at Proficient.
- planning and programming
- classroom management
- Aboriginal education.
Beginning Teachers Conferences are an excellent way for teachers to build professional networks to support them throughout their careers.
