The GLC provides a selection of Professional Learning (PL) programs for pre-service, early years, primary and secondary school educators. The aim of our PL programs is to strengthen the capacity of educators to effectively implement Global Citizenship Education. Why? In order to thrive in a world undergoing deep transformation there is growing international emphasis on the need to prepare our young people with ‘global competencies’. The emerging field of Global Citizenship Education (GCE) provides educators with globally focused educational practices to develop students of all ages as active participants in a diverse, interconnected and interdependent global community.  

The GLC ensures that each PL program meets the requirements set down in the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers and the National Quality Standard (for early childhood educators). Participants can access programs as stand-alone experiences or select a combination of offerings to ensure a deeply immersive professional learning experience. Participants receive a completion certificate identifying the numbers of hours of Continuing Professional Development (CDP) and the elements satisfied within the professional standards.

In 2016 the GLC was a finalist in Queensland Multicultural Awards for Employment, Education and Training Innovation. If you would like to know more about the following PL programs offered by the GLC contact:
