NEU NI CPD and Training Opportunities

Accessing professional development is an important part of being an educational professional. It is the responsibility of the employer and employee to ensure that performance management, PRSD and any other professional requirements are met.

NEU offer for 2021/2022

As the education union, NEU, (and our leadership section, NEU Leaders) is committed to offering “byte-sized” learning opportunities to schools / school managements in circumstances where CPD budgets are tight or non-existent. CPD and learning should be effective and impact on your practice. 

Joining courses does not require NEU membership. There are no course fees and the courses are designed to encourage remote access during the Covid-19 period. Please contact the NEU NI Regional Office or call 028 9078 2020 for more information.
