ONLINE SURVEY
Katina Pollock, an assistant professor in Comparative Education, Educational Policy, Educational Leadership and Administration at the University of Western Ontario is working with the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario (ETFO) investigating non-permanent teachers' access to professional learning.
She is currently conducting an online survey focusing on how occasional teachers access professional learning. Your experiences as an OT will offer a unique insight into how OTs engage in their professional learning.
To participate in this anonymous online survey (10 - 20 minutes) you can send an email to the address below (before Friday, May 21st) and a survey link will be sent to you:
otproflearning@uwo.ca
Katina will not have access to these emails; all survey links are anonymous.
Once data analysis is complete, another link will be available connecting you to a report of the findings.
If you need more information please email Katina directly at kpolloc7@uwo.ca
Or call (519) 661-2111 (ext 82855). She would be more than happy to answer any of your questions. |

GET YOUR QECO RATING !!! 
Once you are hired by the board as an Occasional Teacher it would be in your best financial interest if you immediately apply for your up-to-date QECO rating (Program 5).
QECO requires proof of employment and your first pay cheque stub to provide that information.
Casual (daily) OT's do not require a QECO rating for their pay, but an LTO does. If you do an LTO, then your pay would be attached to the etfo local grid and you would need a QECO rating for your correct placement.
Sometimes QECO takes a while to evaluate a member and it would be advisable to get a rating as soon as possible.You can download a QECO application and get all necessary information by visiting the QECO website
The sooner you do it, the better!
Don't get caught in a situation where you may find yourself getting underpaid because you do not have all the proper documentation. |
