The LPL team welcomes you to the LPL website.
It is designed to support you as a professional learning leader throughout your participation in the LPL program. We will endeavour to make this a central place for you to conveniently access resources and materials that you engage with at the LPL workshops. We will use this site for 'need to know/ have' material for your participation in the program rather than supplying a host of 'nice to know' material, in recognition that your work responsibilities demand much of you all and may preclude leisurely browsing.
We are excited to work with you around your own professional learning and that which you will foster in others.
