Teacher - Local Specialist Associations
The Pro-D Committee has funding available to support SD71 Local Specialist Associations (LSA).
If you would like to organize an LSA for SD71 please see the 5 steps below.
The funds can be used to provide snacks for meetings, supplies, resources, day-care costs, thank you gifts for presenters, or even an honorariums.
Please contact teacherprod@sd71.bc.ca if you have any questions or would like to create your own LSA!
5 Steps to set up your Local Specialist Association (LSA)
1- Email teacherprod@sd71.bc.ca your LSA group name (examples: Library, Home Economics, Kindergarten, Counsellors, etc.)
2- Constitution/mission statement - brief goals for the LSA (just a couple of lines summarizing)
3- Give us a list of members/participants for your particular LSA
4- Collect a small fee ($2- $10) from each member for costs/resources to run the meetings
5- When you run out of funding from fees, you can utilize the $250 set up in your LSA with the Pro-D secretary @ teacherprod@sd71.bc.ca

Reminder for Provincial/District PD Day:
1- If a teacher remains at their school/location of work to do pro-d - no form is needed. This includes teachers doing any online workshop as they remain within their regular classroom/work location.
2- If a teacher is going to be out of the Comox Valley school district (Victoria, Vancouver, Nanaimo) to do pro-d, you must put in absence in AMS 'Pro-D Out Of District' with destination & details and have your principal's approval before the trip out of Comox Valley. NIDES distance teachers are an exception, as they already work out of Comox Valley. They simply need to ensure their principal knows what pro-d work they intend to do on Pro-D Day.
3-If a teacher is doing pro-d activities outside their school/ regular work location, but within the Comox Valley school district (another school, museum, etc.), they must complete an online self-directed form.
At the bottom of the online form, once you've completed filling out your pro-d plans , you need to copy the self-directed request to your principal (Supervisor) for approval and also your School PD Rep.
