Having the UTB leaders’ Support has helped me develop into a confident leader in the school environment. the skills and resources shared throughout the program have been put into action and have proven how important they are.
The program is a great way to connect with like-minded educators who support
learning and self-inquiry.
The Certified Leader Program has enabled me to gain confidence in myself and my abilities, as well as learn from the connections with other like-minded educators around the country.
I have enjoyed the Certified Leader Program. I have built my confidence and learnt a lot about myself. I have learnt how to manage my time and be an effective leader by leading in a positive way that gets everyone involved and ensures everyone feels heard.
I loved the idea of working in 12-week blocks. Being an agent of change can sometimes be overwhelming but working in smaller blocks of time with measurable outcomes makes all the difference. You can get a lot achieved!
The Certified Leader Program has allowed me to set my own DT leadership goals relevant to our school, with support provided from the 1:1 mentoring and group coaching calls. The Growth model has helped me create achievable actions.
I’ve also benefited from the connections with others on the program; connections I hope will be ongoing.
