Provide opportunities for professional growth through participation in various Professional Development (PD) programs.
Foster collaboration among teachers through a learning expertise session.
The training commenced with a livestreamed opening program hosted by NEAP-CO via DepEd Philippines and the NEAP Facebook Page on November 25, 2024, from 8:00-9:00 AM. Following this, teachers participated in virtual PD programs provided by NEAP-CO, selecting from a range of topics tailored to their professional growth needs. Teachers were required to register through the NEAP MasterClass link and engage in at least one and a maximum of five PD programs.
In addition to the virtual sessions, Sagbuco Elementary School conducted a learning collaborative expertise session, facilitating peer discussions and knowledge-sharing based on the INSET 2024 Plan. The schedule and topics were coordinated by the school’s Learning and Development (L&D) Coordinator, ensuring alignment with teachers' needs.
