On Friday 25th of November, teachers from all over Queensland and parts of the ACT, came together for ViSC 2022 – See What’s Possible, where they heard from leading industry professionals and practitioners across each of our program areas: Sport, Fitness, Business and Tourism.
This year’s theme is ‘See What’s Possible’ – post the pandemic, what can you do to heighten the future outcomes for your students and elevate your role as a teacher? How do we keep students engaged and focused regardless of what is happening around them? #ViSC2022 aims to address and stimulate debate on the most significant changes taking place across those industries that you are preparing your students to enter.
#ViSC2022 was again delivered as a hybrid event, which accommodates our traditional live (face-to-face) event as well as provides a concurrent virtual experience leveraging our ‘Elevate’ (virtual streaming) platform for all our Binnacle deliverers.
Binnacle Training’s annual VET in Schools Conference (ViSC) is a 1-Day Professional Development event for Binnacle Deliverers, normally held in Term 4 (Week 8). This event is FREE for all Binnacle Partner Schools.
Our Annual VET in Schools Conference enables all our wonderful Binnacle Program deliverers to satisfy their HR requirements for Semester 2 for both VET and Industry PD as this conference covers the 3-hours minimum required for each PD activity. This information can be located in the Human Resource (HR) requirements section of the Binnacle Third Party Agreement (TPA).
Dr Adam Fraser’s cutting-edge research with Deakin University shows that what high performers have in common is that they use ‘The Third Space’ to overcome setbacks and assume a mindset to get the most out of what is coming next. ‘The Third Space’ is the transitional gap between “What the hell just happened?” and “What’s next?”. High performers use this space to decompress, jettison the negative and bring new focus and energy to the next task at hand.
