Earlier this week I headed into the city to attend the annual planning meeting for ManACE (Manitoba Association for Computing Educators).
After serving on the board for the 2013/2014 school year I took a leave of absence to focus on my M.Ed journey. Now that I've graduated and am home on maternity leave I thought that this would be a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with this wonderful organization.
Here are some of the awesome things you want to know about!
1 ) #MTSPDDay / SAGE Sessions
- ManACE is the only SAGE group to offer PD opportunities across the province rather than centralized in Winnipeg or Brandon! In fact, this year we are offering sessions in:
- Winnipeg
- Mitchell
- Oakbank
- Dauphin
- Ste Rose
- Winkler
- Check out the any of the 13 session descriptions and register easily through our EventBrite listing.
* I will be offering a session in Ste Rose that builds off of a topic I explored during my M.Ed journey.
2 ) Technology Information Nights (TINs)
- As part of our mandate to encourage the use of informational technology ManACE offers ongoing professional development through the year in the form of informal TINs
- These events are FREE, offer up great PD, and include food! What do you have to lose?
- Our first TIN will be held in Winnipeg as a kickoff to #MTSPDDay and boasts 3 amazing presenters.
- Read more and register for a spot through our EventBrite listing.
* Stay tuned for TIN Week in Manitoba coming this February!
