As the debate continues around when and how schools will reopen following the COVID-19 pandemic, education leaders are focusing their discussions on what it will look like when they do. When schools do reopen, things will likely not immediately return to “normal” as schools may need to alter activities to maintain social distancing guidelines and avoid gatherings of large groups of students and staff.
These changes will no doubt have an impact on planned professional development activities during the coming months. While the end of the school year and the summer months are frequently used for PD in preparation for the following year, many planned activities may have to be cancelled or altered.
As you adjust your PD plan, an affordable, easy-to-implement alternative is to utilize online courses. You can even pair online course content with virtual web conferencing to support more in depth professional learning. And in this time of ever-changing plans, turning to a trusted provider with expert-authored courses on a wide range of topics, can help you navigate this transition and roll out PD quickly to your remote staff.
All of these course libraries can be delivered through our award-winning Online Staff Training System, which features automatic training plans which are customizable by role, location, or individual training needs, new hire training plans, email notifications, easy real-time reporting, and built in policy acceptance to simplify training management.
