Your Online Professional Developer
Although this program is in an electronic format, a real professional developer (and a master at that) will assist you throughout this learning process.
Here’s what s/he will do for you:
- encourage and celebrate your learning successes
- provide feedback on specific products you generate
- answer specific questions that emerge as you work through the program
- help you clarify content and implementation procedures
- tell you how to earn inservice points
- verify your completion of this professional development program for inservice points.
Contact with the online professional developer may be through email, online threaded discussions, or telephone. The contact information will be provided to you when you enroll in the course.
In order to enroll in the EPD course, contact your local school district or FDLRS Associate Center. The coordinator at the FDLRS center will tell you when the next course is scheduled. After you have been enrolled, you will be given information about the orientation session.
