Recently an outlet made a media request for this question:

How can administrators offer successful PD for teachers?

The catch was that the answer needed to be five sentences or less.

Here is the quick tips list I shared for how administrators can offer successful professional development for teachers:

*Assess teachers’ needs.

*Seek out a trainer or facilitator with experience presenting to educators, who can deliver those needs.

*Book/schedule this speaker a minimum of 30 days out (even longer is better!) to give proper time for the presenter to research and prepare a customized, quality presentation.

*Provide teachers and staff the time, resources and support they’ll need following this session to implement what the speaker recommends.

 

That’s it. If administrators focus on these four best practices, professional development for teachers will be far more effective and successful.
