On 26 November and 02 December 2025, the webinars within the course The Centre for Learning, Teaching, and Teachers Competences continued.

Both sessions were delivered by Urve Aja, Head of the Teacher Training Department of Narva College of the University of Tartu, who introduced participants to the key aspects of modern teacher professional development.

During the sessions, particular attention was given to:

  • the professional standards for teachers in Estonia and their role in the system of teacher education;
  • teacher professional ethics, its importance for educational culture and the quality of interaction within the school environment;
  • aspects of teacher professional identity and motivation, as well as the factors influencing development, resilience, and self-realisation throughout a teachers career.

This training is an important step in expanding the professional capacities of the LECTURE project participants and integrating modern European approaches into teacher training in Ukraine.

Several insightful sessions are still ahead, promising new ideas, practical tools, and inspiration for advancing teacher education
