The Continuous Professional Learning Committee (CPLC) is CYPT’s newest Support Team, focused on promoting a system-wide approach to professional learning that advances our Shared Goals and Shared Foundations for Practice to improve well-being for children and youth. The CPLC invites diverse expertise to engage professionals working with children, youth, and/or families in meaningful learning that supports equitable practice, social inclusion, and healthy development. The group also seeks to communicate the value of professional learning for all those working with children, youth, and families in our community and supports inter-professional learning that is responsive to sector needs
