ESSDACK Feature

ESSDACK's new College Credit program

ESSDACK has revamped and improved the progam that offers college credit for professional development events. The program makes it possible to pay for that credit in the ESSDACK online store, rather than in person, although some paper feedback forms (available on the day of the workshop) are still required.  
 
  • Two forms are required for college credit:  The registration form and an evaluation form.

PD360 - On-Demand, Job Embedded, Research-Based Staff Development

 ESSDACK and PD 360 have partnered to bring learning to the desktop of your teachers.  This on-demand library of Video Journal of Education programs have been broken into hundreds of fully indexed and searchable video segments.

With follow-up reflection tools, journaling options, community forums, and social networking capabilities built in, teachers have access to content as well as collegial conversations when they need it. 

 

 
For a free 30 day free trial, follow this link (http://www.pd360.com/pd360.cfm?) and enter ESSDACK when prompted for your Registration Code.
 
 
 
 
PRICING:
 
ESSDACK and The School Improvement Network have worked together to establish a special pricing initiative designed to meet the unique situation of rural schools.  This Rural Pricing Initiative allows districts to purchase and implement PD 360 district-wide based on the pricing model (per building or per teacher) which is most advantageous based on the district demographics.  Please contact Deb Haneke (debh@essdack.org) or Troy Williams (troy.williams@schoolimprovement.com) for details about the Rural Pricing Initiative and how it can help you bring the power of PD 360 to your district.
