Professional Growth Networks

A professional growth network is intended to support your professional growth and lifelong learning as a teacher through networking, communications and innovative opportunities. They provide the opportunity to connect with like-minded teachers across Saskatchewan and share promising practices and resources related to a specialized area of practice or interest in education.

There are more than 20 networks across Saskatchewan in a variety of subject fields, service areas and interdisciplinary groups.

All networks are supported by the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation.

Membership is not limited to teachers but includes any person with a professional interest in the activities of the networks. If you are not a member of the STF, please contact the PGN directly for information on how to join their network.
