Participants will sign up for a Friday appointment during the Thursday session. This is a unique opportunity for those initial educators who are in their second year of teaching and must develop a PDP for goal approval by January 1. 

Facilitators will guide participants in the writing process on Thursday, October 29 and provide review teams for goal approval on Friday, October 30.  Initial educators coming for this workshop should bring their following: a general idea of their PDP goal and two or more standards they will address, reflection ideas from the past year’s teaching experience, and part 2A completed of the PDP.  This workshop is limited to 20 participants. Call the WMEA office at 800-589-9762 to reserve your place.
