Dear Colleagues,
Again this year NYSUT will be offering interactive video
conferences for teachers pursuing permanent certificates and focuses on
certification issues after February 1, 2004 on October 27th and January
18, 2011. (If any teacher whose certificate pre-dates February 1, 2004
needs advice, please have them contact me.) This session will provide
an overview of classroom teaching certification requirements, the
application process and the professional development requirement. This
session can be helpful for already certified teachers who may be
applying for an additional certificate or grade-level extension. *This
workshop is not for Pupil Personnel Service Providers or Administrative
certificate titles.
NYSUT is also offering video conferences for Teaching Assistants
on December 8th and March 23, 2011. This session will provide an
overview of the certification requirements, the application process and
the professional development requirement for teaching assistants.
Each of these workshops will be approximately 50 minutes long
with opportunities for questions and answers.
Attached to this e-mail is the flyer that further explains these
conferences and a registration form.
Call the PDTA office is you have any questions. Remember, having
the proper certification is your responsibility.
