The Professional Development tool in Teacher Vitae is useful for both the teacher and the administration. It gives the teacher a place to track, store and organize their previous, current and past Professional Development. This solution focuses on the teacher overview.
Like all other features in Teacher Vitae The Professional Development tool is easy to navigate and is intuitive. It’s also customizable so that districts can use it in ways that best meets their needs.
Just like teachers, the administrator can track, store and organize their Professional Development and Certifications in My Professional Development.
In My Professional Development, Teacher Vitae displays a table listing all Professional Development, the type, credits and dates. From here Professional Development can be added, viewed, edited and deleted. Professional Development can be added via Ad Hoc or from District Offerings.
In My Certifications displays in a table all Professional Development that has certifications and/or credit hours. The table displays the professional Development’s name, status and credit/hours. Past certifications can be tracked in year increments from 1 to 5 to assist with multi year certification courses.
District Offerings displays all the Professional Development offered or supported by the district. Users can scroll through the listings or can filter on any of the details listed at the top of the screen. The courses are laid out in tiles with a short summary for easy scrolling. Clicking More Info gives in depth detail and a link to any registrations.
