Buffalo Area Teacher Recruitment Days (TRD) – April 15-16, 2010

The Buffalo Area Teacher Recruitment Days are scheduled for April 15-16, 2010 at the Buffalo Convention Center on Franklin Street.  School districts from Erie and Niagara County will interview applicants for potential positions on Friday, April 16, 2010.  Pre-registration is required to attend TRD.  In years past, the applicant would need to bring in piles of neatly stapled resumes on heavy bond paper to their college's career center to be eligible to participate in TRD.  Now, the application process has been simplified into a two-step online form that requires basic information to determine your eligibility and an electronic copy of your resume.

TRD ERIE/NIAGARA REGISTRATION PROCESS:

1. Register online - Registration will start at 8 a.m. on February 1, 2010 and will continue until 6 p.m. on February 22, 2010. Space is limited; you are encouraged to register early.
2. Share your resume with districts interested in your certification area - Once you are deemed eligible, you will receive an email around February 16 which will contain information you need about sharing your resume with participating school districts beginning February 17 at 8 a.m.

If you are interested in exploring nationwide opportunities, apply to TRD USA, happening April 15 & 16 2010.
