Oconee RESA announces the following opportunity:  GaPSC Certification Renewal Rule Workshop. The GaPSC is deliverying workshops this fall for all school districts to provide information and resources they will need as districts transition from the old certificate renewal rule to the new rule that goes into effect on July 1 2017.  The workshop presenters are Sallie Barrett and David Hill, both of whom led the state task force that developed recommendations resulting in the new rule.

Each participant will receive a packet of all handouts, worksheets, and the PowerPoint, as well as a flash drive containing a variety of video clips ranging from 4-20 minutes in length that examine professional learning from various angles.  The videos show various Georgia educators engaged in discussions about the rule change and professional learning communities.

Additional workshops will be held in the spring to bring principals up to speed on the rule change; at some point in the future workshops aimed at teacher leaders will be developed and available for delivery.
