Professional Development
Get The Training
What does student-centred, personalised learning actually look like in practice? How do we implement it?
We have developed structured workshop programs to provide concrete answers to these questions. Our value proposition: see the techniques in action, with students, in context, at a school, as part of the training. Our workshops are practical, not theoretical, and our facilitators are still in the classroom using the very techniques they are advocating.
PD Workshops
2 day workshop: 12 hours of registered PD for NSWIT toward Professional Competence - $300
Our core workshops are a 2 day experience, providing not only training but also hands-on prototyping of your own unit for implementation.
We have defined three core workshops to cater for educators at every point of the journey. Work through them in sequence, or select the course that most appeals in your context.
The Learning Matrix
We call this a '101' course. We use a Bloom's / Gardner's Matrix to personalise the curriculum for students.
Personalised Learning
We call this a '201' course. Use a website or web portal to explore more sophisticated personalisation that goes beyond a simple matrix of options.
PBL Unravelled
We call this a '301' course. Organise learning around authentic, integrated, student-centred challenges.
NSWIT Accreditation
NBCS/SCIL is an endorsed provider of Institute Registered professional development for the maintenance of accreditation of Professional Competence. Day 1 and Day 2 of this Workshop address the Standards and Elements for Institute Registered PD.
Scope of Endorsement: all Elements of the Professional Teaching Standards for ICT related professional development. Day 1 and Day 2 address the following NSWIT Elements: 1.2.4, 3.2.3, 3.2.8, 4.2.4.
Facilitation and Consultation
We offer facilitation and consultation for you or your staff around the implementation of a design process.
The design process can be applied at a leadership level, addressing issues as broad as school vision or as specific as the architecture and pedagogy of new learning spaces. It also works superbly at a learning design level, for instance with a team of teachers looking to improve learning outcomes or student engagement.
Book one of our facilitators for a day or contact us to discuss your needs further.

Immersion Days
Each year SCIL hosts many hundreds of educators and leaders from around Australia and the world.
Some of our visitors have a clearly defined agenda, and others simply want to come and have a look.
We highly recommend our 'Immersion Day' as the best way to visit. Our Immersion Days offer the time and a tested process for you to leave with genuine insight and clarity.
