    A1 In BC, it is less about the funding and more about trying to get TTOCs with such a shortage of teachers. #Caedchat

    You need to invest in the beginning. This idea of a one hour jumpstart and sprinkled through the year also doesn't work. #caedchat

    #caedchat A7 I try it out [when I can]. Minimum, I share them out with peers. I design PD for clinicians, so some stuff doesn’t transfer..
