Recently enacted higher performance expectations placed on public schools have brought with them a near mandate that ALL professional development for educators be aligned with goals and activities that increase student achievement.  Competencies 1-6 and related activities are derived from the Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) Standards focused on promoting student achievement.  Competency 7 is an option for administrators whose Professional Development Activities/Plans include helping other educators grow professionally.

 

To complete your Individual Professional Development Plan (IPDP), select R only four of the seven competencies listed below as your Professional Development Goals.  Under each goal, select R at least two Professional Development Activities that appropriately describe professional development activities you plan to participate in over the next five years.   Please Note:  You must earn 6 semester hours or 18 CEUs (or a combination thereof), distributed across the four competencies you have selected, to renew your license at the end of this five-year cycle.

 

 

 

Please Note:  This completed and signed 6-page IPDP (Forms #1 & #2) must be submitted to your district superintendent’s office at the same time you submit your renewal packet.
