Professional Development
The ESPB seeks the advice of teachers, administrators, school board members, teacher education professors, and other interested citizens in developing and updating codes of professional development. Professional development is accomplished, in part through licensure renewal. At the present time, a contracted teacher is required to complete 4 semester hours every five years.
The Education Standards and Practices Board in 2009 endorsed the NSDC/Learning Forward definition for professional development and the professional development standards which can be found at: http://www.learningforward.org/index.cfm.
