Charlie is an educational consultant for Learning Network Educational Services. Experience as a classroom teacher (Gr 112), school-based coordinator (LA/SS and Inclusive Education), and vice principal (K-8 school), helps her craft unique professional learning opportunities for educators. Important in the work we do as designers of professional learning is using the same teaching strategies and tools that teachers can use in their classrooms while honoring them as competent adult learners. Charlie is a Learning Transfer Endorsed Educator as well as the Regional Network Chair of @WomenEdAlberta (part of the global #WomenEd network supporting and encouraging women in formal and informal leadership positions). She is passionate about instructional leadership and improving teacher practice for all learners’ benefit.

Dan is currently a Professional Learning Program Coordinator for the Learning Network Educational Services who is leading the Implementation work associated with the 'new' Alberta Curriculum. He also brings with him, over 40 years of classroom, school and district administration, and curriculum implementation leadership. Dan fully subscribes to being a lifelong learner and his mantra is," That it is generally easier to get people to act their way into a new way of thinking… than it is to get them to think their way into a new way of acting." So, let's roll up our sleeves and get to it!
