Description: Professional Development is focused on teaching adult staff strategies and techniques to improve student skills, behavior and performance. The direction is always student focused: teaching curriculum, strategies, topic information, to increase our knowledge of how to improve student outcomes. Clearly, we need to master a set of skills to be competent in our profession. However, we learn skills to better take care of others, but are never allowed professional time to learn how to better take care of ourselves. We're expected to do that on our own time, except, we are usually using a lot of our own time to become better professionals in our work setting.
This webinar is led by Sharon Krupa-Sirotek, Ph.D., Licensed Clinical and School Psychologist. She has over 40 years of experience in the field of psychology. Her clinical experience has taught her that it is a combination of EXTERNAL and INTERNAL skills that determine true expertise and success. To be truly successful at your job and your life, you need to be healthy: physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. It is impossible to truly serve others unless you can first be balanced within yourself.
The premise of this webinar is that "Your Work is as Good as You Are." We will discuss current research on a number of areas of health, wellness and happiness. Participants will be encouraged to look honestly at their own behaviors, thoughts and emotions and identify areas of strengths and need. We will offer numerous strategies to begin to change routines and bring greater balance, health and happiness into your life.
