3 Graduate-Level PD Credits for DOE Educators across the U.S.!
Upon completion of this course, participants will receive 3 graduate-level PD credits from Colorado State University Pueblo, which can be used for professional advancement such as salary increment steps and licensing requirements.
Aloha, Hawai'i State DOE educators!
3-PD Credits: Just like our other courses in partnership with UMass Global and CSU Pueblo, this course also results in 3-PD credits towards HIDOE salary step movement/reclassification.
✶ Hawai'i State DOE participants: If you are a Hawai'i State DOE participant, please be sure to receive signed principal approval for any university coursework that will be applied towards reclassification by using the 200-005 Form (click here). Also, every year in January, HawaiiUSA Federal Credit Union typically begins providing PD support stipends to reimburse Hawaii State DOE educators for their professional development fees accrued throughout the year. For more information about this fantastic opportunity, click the following link: The HawaiiUSA Professional Support Stipend.
Information about PD-Credits for Hawai'i State DOE participants:
Hawai'i State DOE educators can use these graduate-level PD credits in place of Learnsoft-issued PD credits (formerly PDE3-issued credits) for salary step movement in the HIDOE Teacher Reclassification system. Please note that this graduate-level PD course is not available through the HIDOE Learnsoft system. Since these are graduate-level PD credits, coursework will only be reviewed by UMass Global instructors and does not require submission to Learnsoft for further review. Upon completion, 3-PD credits will be issued directly by UMass Global. For more details on using university or college credits for salary reclassification, please refer to the Hawai'i State DOE "Guidelines for Reclassification" memo: click here.
If you are a Hawai'i State DOE educator, please download and print the 200-005 Form for university credits, and have it signed by your school's Principal. To apply your 3 graduate level PD-credits to salary step movement, you can simply submit your 200-005 form to the DOE's Reclassification Unit along with your CSU Pueblo transcript once you complete the course. We have completed the course information for you on this form and it can be downloaded and printed at the following link: click here.
