Professional Associations Conferences 2025

Provincial Conference – Friday, October 24, 2025

On the fourth Friday in October of each year, NSTU members from around the province are invited to attend professional development conferences organized by our Professional Associations. The list of program offerings demonstrates a breadth of curriculum-based and other professional development opportunities that are designed to ensure Nova Scotia's students benefit from the latest pedagogical advances.

 

The main registration deadline for our Professional Associations Conferences has now passed. However, invidual Professional Associations whose conferences have not reached capacity have extended their registration deadlines. Please see the list below for the conferences still accepting registrations.
