Professional Development Brought To Your Door!

Are you looking for a workshop that would benefit your staff? Are you looking for some professional development for a staff meeting or a staff retreat? Have you attended a workshop and wished your entire staff heard the same message? If you answered yes to any of these questions then perhaps we have the solution. You can contact MCCA to arrange for your personalized professional development. This service is available to child care centres across the province and can be delivered by Zoom or in-person.

Benefits of your own personalized professional development opportunity:

  • Everyone hears the same message
  • Reduced cost – the cost to bring someone in for 35 people is cheaper than registering 35 people for a workshop
  • Topic specific to your needs
  • Flexibility with dates and times

MCCA has an extensive database of presenters, many of which have been presenting professional development for many years. Due to this consistent relationship with us, the presenters may be able to provide a discounted rate through MCCA. In 2023, MCCA has organized almost 50 personalized PDs for programs throughout Manitoba. The most popular workshop topic is Team Building, Respectful workplaces, challenging behaviours.
