Participants learn through “doing” and leave the workshops with the ability to immediately apply what they have learnt.
Workshops are tailored to meet the individual needs of the participants with options in format of presentation, specific content/context, length of workshop, number of participants as well as venue – SASS consultants are able to meet with you in your workplace!
The implementation of strategies, programs and processes can be daunting following workshops, so SASS offers a range of ongoing support options such as email and mentoring visits.
Our aim is to the build knowledge and skills within your school – teachers are your most valuable resource!
