Please contact us to find out how you can join a CPD programme to enhance your skills in Gaelic or to enable you to transfer to Gaelic-medium teaching either in the primary or the secondary sector.

There are two courses within the programme: Language Development to support Gaelic Medium Teaching and Critical Reflection and Portfolio Building.

This is an on-line programme, but a three-day induction will be provided at which you will have the opportunity to join tutors and other course participants. There will also be two further face-to-face meetings as you progress through the programme.

Additionally, mentors will be available to provide advice and encouragement to you.

To follow this programme, you will need to have access to a phone for your tutorials, and to a computer with the following features during your study time:

  • Web Browser
  • Email client

The development of the programme has been funded by the Scottish Executive.
