​​Provincial ATA page where the above link is located with additional information regarding convention attendance.​
​
​As an ATA member who teaches in a public, separate or francophone school division, you have a legal and professional obligation to attend your assigned teachers’ convention.
In some cases, you may wish to request permission from the ATA to
  • be released from attendance at part or all of your convention,
  • attend an alternate professional development event or
  • attend a different convention.
If your situation is not detailed here, call 1-800-232-7208 and ask to speak to the ATA’s Professional Development duty officer.
