Center for Professional Development - Activities

In the school year 2024/2025, the UWC Mostar Centre for Professional Development successfully organized three workshops aimed at enhancing teaching practices and fostering collaboration among educators. The English workshop took place in August 2024, followed by workshops in History and Mathematics in January 2025.

These workshops brought together 75 teachers from 25 cities across Bosnia and Herzegovina, representing both the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Republika Srpska. Additionally, we were pleased to welcome two teachers from Croatia, further strengthening regional cooperation in education.
They all came from a total of 27 different cities: 
Jablanica, Mostar, Čapljina, Stolac, Sarajevo, Ilijaš, Visoko, Goražde, Maglaj, Kakanj, Livno, Kiseljak, Kalesija, Konjic, Banja Luka, Gradačac, Zenica, Bugojno, Tuzla, Novi Travnik, Blagaj, Doboj, Travnik, Olovo, Cazin, Vinkovci and Zagreb.

Providing regular workshops enables teachers to stay current with new teaching strategies, promoting continuous improvement in education. Ongoing sessions ensure that educators remain engaged and motivated, which directly benefits the quality of education in the classroom.
By offering high-quality professional development opportunities, UWC Mostar continues to support educators in their mission to bring excellence and innovation into their classrooms, ultimately benefiting students and communities across the region.

What participants say:

The professor thoroughly explained the methods through the theoretical and practical parts. The topics and examples were concrete, and the ideas were realistic and applicable in the classroom. All in all, we took a lot with us, it's great when you have quality and experienced lecturers from whom you can learn a lot.

There is a need for such workshops as often as possible, because during the workshop, I noticed that some professors lacked practical work.

I have acquired new knowledge, which I will apply in my practice. I particularly like the research type of the test, which I have not had the opportunity to see in this form until now. I also made new acquaintances and exchanged some practical experiences.
