oday, we’re happy to share Professional Learning Board (PLB) with teachers and schools as a a dynamic and affordable professional development resource. In their quirky videos, PLB highlights several reasons to check it out – one of which is that “teachers are too busy to NOT use Professional Learning Board!” Here’s a quick peak:
Online courses range from dealing with bullying to teaching English language learners. Most of the courses can be taken as self-study, allowing teachers or schools to engage in PD at their own pace. Other slightly pricier courses are facilitated by a member of the PLB team. The most expensive plans allow teachers to get Graduate Credit for completion. Though more expensive than self-initiated study, getting college credits may be well worth the money for maintaining teaching and renewing credentials.
According to PLB’s “promise,” all courses are specifically designed to align with the National Board of Professional Teaching Standards Core Propositions and state professional development standards. This is a huge plus when trying to ascertain your National Board credentials or fitting in PD in the already chock full school schedule.
