Firstly I should apologise for not posting before now, however the year is coming to a close again with lots of staff development days, this is our busiest time at the RSC as we are invited to join many colleges and deliver staff development sessions.
However the timing of the staff development sessions seems to a be an issue with many staff, who feel that the end of term staff development days are almost too late and rely on you having a really good memory come the start of term in September.
A couple of colleges that I have visited have adopted an all year round staff development programme which allows the staff to try their new skills out and have time to reflect on how this will be integrated into the daily routine.
My experience of the end of term staff development has always been positive; however I do feel that the all year round programme has many advantages. The issues of time and money are real factors. So I would be interested to hear about what’s happening in your organisation with regards to staff development what model are you using ? Please let me know by replying on the blog.
