Choose Which Category is Best for You

To identify which category is the best fit for you for the workshop agendas, please click through categories one through three below to look at the overview and the ‘is this right for you’ section, which describes different examples of experience with the IB programme.

If you are looking for workshop descriptions, please view the IB Professionsal Development catalogue here.

Choose category 1 if you are new to the IB or if your situation is similar to any of the following:

  • You are new to the faculty of a longstanding IB World School and have not taught in an IB programme previously.
  • You are aware of the IB philosophy and programme structure but are not experienced in teaching or administrating IB.
  • You are familiar with the IB subject guide (including assessment procedures, moderation) and would like greater confidence before teaching a course.
  • You have inherited a course and would like to review the subject content before teaching it to suit your own style and expertise.

Choose category 2 workshops to develop your expertise in delivering an IB programme. You will have an opportunity to:

  • make connections between programme frameworks and classroom practice
  • enhance your understanding of assessment in IB programmes
  • discuss and analyse standards and practices

Choose category 3 workshops to go more deeply into areas you enjoy and to deepen your understanding and mastery of a particular area or subject.
