At For Teachers By Teachers, we believe that professional development should be practical, inspiring, and tailored to the real-world challenges educators face. Our innovative courses are designed for PK–12 educators who want to sharpen their skills, explore the latest research-driven teaching techniques, and make a meaningful impact in their classrooms.

We understand the demands of a modern educator’s schedule, which is why all our courses are self-paced and fully online. Crafted by experienced teachers, professional writers, and educational researchers, our offerings provide a flexible and convenient way for you to earn salary differential credits while engaging in rich, impactful learning. Take just one course, and you'll experience the difference that professional development designed For Teachers By Teachers makes in your career.

We’re proud to offer graduate-level professional development courses in partnership with Colorado State University Pueblo and University of Massachusetts Global. Our courses are also officially recognized by several state and district education departments, including the Hawaii State Department of Education (through Learnsoft, formerly PDE3), the Pennsylvania Department of Education and ACT 48 program, and the New York City Department of Education’s ASPDP. In NYC, our courses are approved for CTLE hours, A+ credits, and P Credits — helping teachers meet their professional learning requirements with high-quality, accredited content.

Our Courses Proudly Support:

  • Graduate Level PD Credits: Through our university partnerships, we offer graduate-level PD credits that educators in Pennsylvania, Hawai'i, California, Oregon, Texas, Colorado, Florida, Washington, Nevada, Illinois, and nationwide can apply toward salary advancement and licensure requirements.
  • Hawai'i State DOE Credits: In partnership with HIDOE's Learnsoft (formerly PDE3), our Learnsoft-specific courses provide Learnsoft issued PD credits that Hawai'i's educators can use for salary step movement and reclassification. Our UMass Global and CSU Pueblo courses offer graduate level PD credits, recognized by HIDOE's Teacher Reclassification Unit as "Academic Credits", which can be applied towards HIDOE Reclassification.
  • New York City DOE: A+ Credits, P Credits, & CTLE Requirements: As an approved sponsor with ASPDP, we offer courses that meet New York State’s Continuing Teacher and Leader Education (CTLE) requirements. Educators can earn P and A+ credits to apply toward salary differentials, including BA+30, BA+60, and MA+30.
  • Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) and the ACT 48 program: Through our partnerships with PDE, our Act 48 approved courses provide you with meaningful, relevant learning experiences that you can immediately apply to your classroom — all while earning official ACT 48 credit. PA teachers are also eligible to receive university semester credits through our partnerships with UMass Global and CSU Pueblo.
