Sign up for a 60-minute high-impact networking and sharing forum exclusively for educators from AMISA Member Schools. These facilitated sessions are perfect opportunities to expand your network and pick up some new resources from colleagues in the region.
Continuous Learning Initiatives
Continuous Learning Initiatives are designed to engage participants in continuous, cohort-style learning throughout the course of an academic year. These opportunities provide leveled-up learning on a focused topic or theme within a specific Professional Learning Strand. Learning includes both synchronous and asynchronous formats and is facilitated by a consultant, or team of consultants. Opportunities typically begin in September and conclude in May or early June.
