Professional Development

Professional Development for Art Teachers

Whole-school professional development often falls short for art teachers because it tends to focus on general educational strategies that may not address the unique, subject-specific needs of teaching art. Art teachers require professional development that covers specialised techniques, creative pedagogies, and artistic skill development, which are rarely the focus of broader training sessions.

Online Courses at Your Pace

Finding high-quality online professional development for art teachers is challenging due to the subject’s hands-on, experiential nature. It demands interactive and practical approaches that generic online courses typically lack. The online courses below are art-teacher-specific.
