Introduced to the 3 enemies of PD effectiveness

Ever noticed how professional development can feel like a game of unrealised good intentions? Maybe you’re the person who attends sessions, gets inspired, but those insights disappear as soon as you get back to work. Or perhaps you’re the person where PD mounts up on the one-day list, never quite getting engaged with. Or maybe you’re the person who’s disillusioned with PD which for some of us has become a box-ticking exercise rather than something that genuinely helps us in our work.

Don’t worry - I’ve got you! 

In this dynamic 60-minute webinar you’ll be introduced to the 3 enemies of PD effectiveness (PD Paralysis, PD Inertia, and PD Amnesia) along with 5 workload friendly, practical strategies that transform PD into useful action. 

This isn’t about adding more to your already-full plate. It’s about making sure the PD you do engage with this year is the PD that’s right for you, your practice, and your workload. 

• Alignment with 2025 SRTO:
  Standards 3.1 and 3.2: Continuing professional development. These professional development resources support trainers in developing and maintaining skills and knowledge in engaging, quality training delivery.
