Have You Checked Out ManACE!?
Today I spent my first day out of the classroom attending the annual planning meeting for ManACE (Manitoba Association for Computing Educators).
Being that I am almost 4 hours out of the city I don’t get to attend many meetings in person so it was awesome to catch-up with those that I only see once or twice a year! Furthermore, we are welcoming four new members to our board so I am adding new contacts to my circle 🙂
Here are some of the awesome things you want to know about!
1 ) SAGE Sessions
– ManACE is the only SAGE group to offer PD opportunities
across the province rather than centralized in Winnipeg or
Brandon! In fact, this year we are offering sessions in:
– Winnipeg
– Warren
– Oakbank
– Decker Colony School
– Lorette
– Swan River
– Portage la Prairie
– Check out the any of the 17 session descriptions here or
register for a session here
2 ) SEED Grants
– Every year ManACE offers up eight grants of $900 to promote
ICT Literacy in Manitoba schools. These grants can go towards
hardware, software, professional development, etc and are
available for early years, middle years, senior years, and admin
levels.
– This year’s SEED Grant applications will be available in November!
– Check out our webpage to read over information from last year
to get you thinking!

Thanks Mr. Nantais!
Well every year there is an annual meeting in my company. I love the meeting room area of my company which is very spacious and everything is available there for employees comfort like projector, mike, nice chairs and ac’s. We enjoy doing meetings there sometimes on weekends.
