Scaling Quality Teacher Professional Development: A case study of the Philippines

The TPD@Scale Coalition highlights that building the capacity of teachers is critical for education systems to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) of Quality Education. However, many developing nations encounter barriers to achieving comprehensive, inclusive, and cost-effective teacher professional development (TPD) on a large scale.

In response, the Foundation for Information Technology Education and Development (FIT-ED) and The National Educators' Academy of the Philippines (NEAP), through the TPD@Scale Coalition, has implemented several programmes and studies in the Philippines focusing on the scalability of TPD.

During this session, TPD@Scale Coalition Advisory Board Member Cher Ping Lim will share key insights from iterative studies and programmes on scaling TPD in the Philippines. Discover best practices for designing at scale, including localising for inclusion, matching technology choice with professional learning needs, and approaching scaling as a system-wide concern/initiative, so that we can pave the way for empowered, competent, and confident teachers.
