Pan-Canadian Survey
In collaboration with the ATA, the Canadian Teachers’ Federation (CTF/FCE) recently launched Parachute, a largescale, multi-year, pan-Canadian educator survey series that aims to monitor changes in the teaching profession and Canadian public education. Your participation directs advocacy work across the country and ensures that support lands where it’s needed most.

East Side Dance Festival
The East Side Dance Festival (ESDF) Society invites all dance teachers and enthusiasts across Alberta to join us for two days of keynote presentations, workshops and lectures curated to energize your teaching practices. This professional development opportunity will provide exciting resources to help you elevate your dance classes and engage in authentic, socially conscious and culturally responsive pedagogy. We aim to build strong relationships between dance educators, community partners and students through meaningful connections and shared experiences. We are all part of Alberta’s inclusive and dynamic arts community and have so much to share with and learn from each other. We hope you will come and join us!
The ESDF Dance Teacher Conference will be held at the Decidedly Jazz Danceworks Centre in Calgary on January 23–24, 2025 (9 a.m.–4:45 p.m. each day). Find out more information and register.
