Our annual support staff conference is designed to provide valuable professional development for non-certified school and district staff.

This event also provides a forum to connect with others across the region who serve students behind the scenes fostering a strong sense of community and the opportunity to exchange ideas.
Conference strands include: Culture and Climate – creating a positive work environment, supportive work culture and stronger communication skills; Technology and Job Skills – Practical skills on specific software, time management and other job-related skills; and, Health and Wellness – stress management, mindfulness and self-care to promote a healthy work-life balance.
Support staff will learn new skills that can be applied to their personal and professional life enabling them to be more effective and efficient in their everyday roles, and leave inspired and energized knowing that they make a difference in the lives of students every day.
