Dear ETFO Members, ETFO's Summer Academy 2010 is here and registration is open! This year, ETFO's Summer Academy includes 76 dynamic and practical courses across the province (including Stratford) to meet our members' professional needs. Most of the courses are designed around 20 hours of learning over a three-day period. The courses have been designed to inform, motivate and refresh ETFO members as they plan for the upcoming school year. The registration fee for three full days of learning, collaborating and networking with colleagues is only $45 for most courses which includes excellent hand-outs and a light nutritional morning break and lunch on all three days. Please check out the wide variety of course descriptions and locations on the ETFO website - www.etfo.ca. Simply click on the Summer Academy icon and take a look through our extensive course listing and then complete the easy online registration process. We look forward to another inspiring and invigorating summer of professional learning with our members across the province this July and August. |
