Whats New With ManACE

Earlier this week I headed into the city to attend the annual planning meeting for ManACE (Manitoba Association for Computing Educators). 

After serving on the board for the 2013/2014 school year I took a leave of absence to focus on my M.Ed journey.  Now that I’ve graduated and am home on maternity leave I thought that this would be a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with this wonderful organization.

Here are some of the awesome things you want to know about!

1 ) #MTSPDDay / 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

     – Mitchell

     – Oakbank

     – Dauphin

     – Ste Rose

     – Winkler

– Check out the any of the 13 session descriptions and register easily through our EventBrite listing.

* I will be offering a session in Ste Rose that builds off of a topic I explored during my M.Ed journey.

2 ) Technology Information Nights (TINs)

– As part of our mandate to encourage the use of informational technology ManACE offers ongoing professional development through the year in the form of informal TINs

– These events are FREE, offer up great PD, and include food! What do you have to lose?

– Our first TIN will be held in Winnipeg as a kickoff to #MTSPDDay and boasts 3 amazing presenters.

– Read more and register for a spot through our EventBrite listing.

* Stay tuned for TIN Week in Manitoba coming this February!
