Graduate Teachers

The TLN provides professional development opportunities specifically designed for graduate teachers. TLN has partnerships with the AEU, IEU and Department of Education and Training to support graduate teachers in their work.

The Top 100 Graduate Teacher Program

The Top 100 Graduate Teacher Program was a series of 10 professional development programs running in 2018-2019, each containing 10 Top Tips for graduate teachers. The program was designed to support graduate teachers in their first year of employment. The program was available across the country and created an online professional community of graduate teachers. It was only available to graduate teachers who are members of the IEU or AEU.
