PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Danielle McIntyre, Convenor

"ORMTA Ottawa Region Branch hosts Professional Development Events throughout the year for both our member teachers and other community members. Our goal is to provide a welcoming atmosphere for teachers to hone their skills, ask questions, and meet other teachers. Within this environment we hope that teachers are refreshed and come away learning more about their craft and finding support within the music teaching community. Please join us at a Professional Development event!"
