7th Nov 2024
We're excited to announce our 14th National Meeting, taking place on Friday, November 15th, 2024, at the Fraser Suites in Sydney.
This annual gathering brings together our valued delegates from educational jurisdictions across Australia for a day of collaboration and innovation. Together, we'll celebrate the year's achievements, share experiences, and map out exciting developments for OLT's professional development programs.
"These meetings are vital for ensuring our professional development programs continue to meet the needs of educators across Australia," says OLT Director Nick Maloney. "The insights and feedback we receive from our jurisdictional partners directly shape our approach to supporting quality education delivery nationwide."
It's a fantastic opportunity for our education partners to shape the future of OLT's courses and platform, ensuring we continue to meet the evolving needs of educators nationwide.
We look forward to welcoming our representatives from state and territory education departments, Catholic education offices, and independent school sectors for another productive day of collaboration.
