A meeting was held with the Western Georgia Resource Centers (ERC) at the Kutaisi Public School N3. The meeting concerned the challenges within the “Teacher Induction, Professional Development and Career Advancement Scheme” and was led by the TPDC Continuous Professional Development program Coordinator-Irina Samsonia.

ERC-s retrieved information on current and planned activities presented by TPDC, whereas on the other hand they also provided TPDC with the existing challenges and needs occurred at the “Teacher Induction, Professional Development and Career Advancement Scheme” implementation pilot stage. Meetings of similar formats will be held regularly and will result in successful professional development scheme implementation.

Introduction of consultation mechanism within the “Teacher Induction, Professional Development and Career Advancement Scheme” at schools is envisioned. The consultations will be directed by the TPDC trainer-consultants. TPDC will collaborate closely with ERC Heads to define the consultation format and school territorial distribution.
