Professional development (PD)
Developing leaders in international education
The International Baccalaureate® (IB) is committed to supporting the ongoing development of a worldwide professional learning community comprising internationally minded teachers, school leaders and school administrators.
The IB professional development team strives to be a leader in designing professional development (PD) products and services for international educators. The IB provides high-quality, innovative products and services to help new, experienced and expert school leaders and educators understand, support, and successfully deliver IB programmes by drawing on the expertise of a network of IB educators worldwide.
IB PD:
- provides a variety of pathways for educators to build and expand their professional portfolios as part of their commitment to lifelong learning
- offers relevant, effective, affordable and accessible face-to-face, online, and onsite workshops and other experiences
- gives educators an opportunity to engage with universities around the world that offer pre-service and post-graduate experiences that embed the IB philosophy in teacher practice and earn an IB certificate in teaching and learning or an IB advanced certificate in teaching and learning research.
