ABOUT US

The Bendigo CRT Network began in October 2008 with the support of the Victorian Institute of Teaching. The Network provides an avenue for Casual Relief Teachers and those on Family Leave to access up-to-date and relevant Professional Development. The sessions also provide an opportunity to meet regularly with other CRTs. The Network IS NOT an EMPLOYMENT AGENCY, it is for PROFESSIONAL LEARNING ONLY.
