OSSTF/FEESO remains committed to building the capacity of educators by continuing to offer high quality professional growth opportunities created by Members, for Members. Professional Development Workshops will be limited to the following offerings, most of which are available in both virtual and on-line presentations.
Districts and Bargaining Units should be aware of the following:
- Workshop content and materials are owned and copyrighted by OSSTF/FEESO.
- The District rebate will be charged $500.00 if less than 20 participants attend the workshop. No charge will be applied for any workshop requests cancelled at least 72 hours prior to the scheduled delivery date. Workshops delivered to groups of 20 or more will continue to be offered free of charge to OSSTF/FEESO members.
- Districts, Bargaining Units, or individual worksites requesting multiple webinars for the same date will be required to list the workshops in order of priority for delivery as some requests may not be filled due to overwhelming demand or lack of presenter availability. A maximum of four workshops will be confirmed for each requested professional development event. The identified priorities of the Districts and/or Bargaining Units will be used to determine which workshops are confirmed first. Additional workshops may be arranged based upon presenter availability.
