Graduate Formation Program

The Graduate Formation Program welcomes and supports beginning teachers as they begin their career in Catholic Education in the Diocese of Lismore. The Graduate Formation Program supports beginning teachers through a school-based, practice focused Induction program to assist transition into the teaching profession.

The two-year program includes the provision of a school-based Mentor (Accreditation Supervisor) who will support the development and demonstration of Proficient Teacher practice as described by the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers. The school-based program is complemented by professional learning, formation experiences and networking opportunities provided by the Catholic Schools Office.
