| Scottish Borders Council Education and Lifelong Learning The Continuing Professional Development (CPD) strategy within Education and Lifelong Learning recognises the importance of investing in our staff. Supporting and developing people is central to Education and Lifelong Learning’s Strategic Improvement Plan and lies at the heart of our ability to deliver high quality service provision. Through encouraging and supporting Continuing Professional Development for all, we can enable staff to identify their learning needs and to realise their potential. Through consultation with our staff, the co-ordination of training incentives and support for Personal Development Plans and CPD activity, we aim to map out an approach that will take the service forward in a way that contributes to the long-term improvement of our services. We aim to promote a coherent and equitable approach to the development of CPD opportunities for all staff. Our aims for the directory are to:
· include the widest range of opportunities for all
· reflect emerging CPD needs
· respond to users’ needs in its structure and content
· support all staff in their CPD processes
· broaden access to CPD opportunities
· support staff review processes in developing online facilities To meet the needs of staff, courses are offered at different times with activities taking place during the day, at the end of the day, in the evenings and on Saturdays. The courses are open to all members of staff across the department, appropriate to individual needs as well as the needs of the whole service. For further information please contact: Jacqueline Garry
