Welcome back to another year of exciting discoveries.
As you may have guessed, we are working with a new look. Yes it’s a blog platform and offers much in the way of both sharing and having conversations. Over the next while, we will be adding to the site so please drop by often. Better yet, take advantage of the RSS feed, which will send new information directly to you.
We’re also launching other things, which will make life easier (streamlining the process) and let your ‘fingers do the walking’. Our new Staff Development Event Calendar (https://10.155.6.59/staffdevelopmentcalendar/) has been opened for all district registration of workshops, learning series and events, and anything else that needs registering.
Have you ever forgotten to register for that fabulous workshop and called only to find it full? Or went through registration via voice mail or email and hoped you did it all right? Or have you hunted high and low for that elusive handbook that 12 other people wanted too? Our new online SD Calendar makes all these frustrations a thing of the past!
Simply go to the district site, look for the Staff Development icon on the right side and log in using your SD41 Groupwise ID/PW.
*Registration is a breeze – anytime, anywhere you have internet connection. Link directly to your session presenters and get detailed information or email them from within the program (you don’t have to open Groupwise email)! Get last minute updates immediately via email – Wow! And like all blogging platforms, we’ve made it so you can search by categories, tags or dates.
The days of waiting for confirmation phone calls are over. An added bonus in the e-environment – we’ll be saving quite a few trees. Stay tuned for more information this month or click the link above and get a head start on your professional learning plans. More learning sessions or series will be added as the year progresses.
