Professional Learning Policy Change
 
 
On the 1st of February 2018, changes made by the Board to the Professional Learning Policy came into effect. These changes will affect the way teachers record their professional learning. From this date, all teachers must have at least 60 hours of professional learning recorded on their individual TRB Teachers Portal account when renewing their registration.
 
If you don’t have a Teachers Portal account watch our step-by-step guide to setting one up or you can simply sign up for an account here. Once you have an account you can watch a short video on how to record your professional learning here.
