I have just attended a great CAT teacher in-service training session here in the Western Cape. It was for a whole week in the holidays. What drew the teachers to attend such a course? – quality presentations where they could learn, as well as great teas and lunches! It was organised by a subject advisor. He also regularly organises a course before the start of the school year every January, as well as every June/July. This July course was focused on Operational Knowledge. Last year the June course focused on Advanced Applications. I estimate that 90% of the teachers in his area attended this July course. Good for him.
With regard to the PAT these URLs supplied by another Western Cape subject advisor are great on checking web sites for trustworthiness - http://www.immunize.cpha.ca/uploads/cciap%20internet%20tips%20e%202008.pdf and information in general - http://www.virtualchase.com/quality/checklist_print.html

Well done, Patrick!
In our district we don't have a subject advisor, so we don't have the opportunity to attend such course. This is a pity.
Great news as some people are lucky!
Western Cape is very lucky.Only if I knew about, I would have love to attend it. Im in Springbok in Northern Cape, not so far from u and seems it was hosted at my almamater. Be glad you get that kind of assistance.
