Free Online Professional Development for Renewal Credit
“Teacher-to-Teacher” Online Workshops
The U.S. Department of Education brought together some of the nation's most effective teachers and education experts to share with their colleagues research-based practices and proven methods of using data to inform instruction. Teacher-to-Teacher Summer Workshops, recently offered in various locations all over the United States, presented research-based practices that have been instrumental in closing the achievement gap. These workshops were taped and converted to the video-streaming format. The South Dakota Department of Education is accepting the online Teacher-to-Teacher Workshops offered through the US Department of Education as credits for renewing a teaching certificate. These workshops are at no charge to teachers and may be used to renew a South Dakota certificate. Each workshop is comprised of video and follow-up activities that equate to 10 hours that may equate to CEU’s. A maximum of five (5) T2T Workshops may be submitted for a five-year renewal for those without an advanced degree and nine (9) T2T Workshops may be used for a five-year renewal for those with an advanced degree. The workshops must be aligned with educator’s area of certification/content subject area. To use the workshops for renewal, an eLearning Certificate of Completion form for each session completed, must be submitted at the time of application for renewal to the South Dakota Office of Accreditation and Teacher Quality. The Certificate of Completion must include date(s) and contact hours spent in the professional activity.
