While declaring the event open, the Minister of State for Education, Professor Suwaiba Ahmad, described the initiative as a major step forward in the national effort to reform the education sector.
Professor Ahmad explained that the CoPs, which are part of the Quality Education and Learning Outcomes Initiative, are intended to build learning communities, foster the exchange of knowledge, and support long-term professional growth for teachers.
She also noted the alignment between the CoPs and the EDU REVAMP digital platform, which will equip educators with modern tools, encourage engagement, and offer rewards for completing learning modules.
Ahmad encouraged teachers to get ready for the digital platform, pointing out that online learning will deliver both valuable skills and practical benefits.
Her words: “The theme of this workshop, ‘Revamping Education through Collaboration, Innovation, and Practice,’ is at the heart of what these Communities of Practice represent. These CoPs are not just groups; they are learning communities, hubs of shared knowledge, and platforms for sustainable teacher professional development.
“Having spent many years both in the classroom and in the field as a Professor of Science Education, I have firsthand understanding of the challenges our teachers face. I deeply value the transformative power of strong professional communities and how Communities of Practice like this enable us to maximize limited resources, especially the invaluable expertise and knowledge of our colleagues, unlocking the full potential of both educators and learners.”
The Minister stated that the launch represents a purposeful move toward education reform, with a strong emphasis on teachers collaborating within communities of practice.
