Provincial Initiatives
Support for Implementation 2011-2012
ARPDC plans learning opportunities based on advice from the region served. Advice and direction is most often received from advisory committee members, district curriculum coordinators, participant feedback from sessions and education stakeholders. We also rely on provincial stakeholder’s direction and leadership, such as representatives on the consortium board. ARPDC also receives grants to support implementation from Alberta Education. Each region allocates a portion of their “implementation grant” to each area identified by Alberta Education based on district input and direction.

Guide to Comprehensive PD Planning
This guide has been developed by a committee of Alberta’s education partners and is intended to support school jurisdictions and schools in the
development of comprehensive professional development plans.
The planning process described in this guide is founded on the belief that collaboration among education partners is essential to the delivery of
effective PD at the school and system levels. Collaboration supports the delivery of effective PD, which in turn leads to improved professional practice and enhanced student learning.
