Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development (QF) has signed an agreement with the IB to provide a series of teacher training workshops.
In supporting Qatar on its journey from a carbon economy to a knowledge-based economy, QF is furthering the mission by building on its core education activity to become an approved provider of IB Professional Development workshops for educators. The first took place in March 2015.
QF currently develops skilled graduates and first-class teachers through an innovative and multidisciplinary education model. And in keeping with its objectives to enhance educational standards, the IB workshops will further develop teacher training skills.
The workshops will be conducted in both English and Arabic.
QF’s Director of Academic Outreach in the Pre-University Education Office, Noof Ahmed al-Thani, said: “Qatar Foundation believes that professional development should be on-going for all educators, irrespective of experience—not only for continuous professional and personal growth, but also to ensure that educators keep improving the learning experiences and outcomes of all their students.”
IB Regional Director for Africa, Europe, Middle East, Adrian Kearney said: “This agreement represents an important step for the IB in Qatar and enables greater access to the professional development workshops for which IB is renowned. We hope this will lead to further collaboration with the educational authorities in Qatar.”
