Additional Information

Certificates of Participation will be issued for all participants and can be used to apply workshops toward Professional Development Points (PDPs) requirements. Educators with a Professional License must earn at least 150 PDPs in every five-year renewal cycle, split among the following categories:

  • Content for each License (15 PDPs)
  • Pedagogy for each License (15 PDPs)
  • ESL/SEI (15 PDPs)
  • Special Education (15 PDPs)
  • Elective (90 PDPs)

Teachers holding a professional license may “bundle” the PDPs earned from workshops that they participated in as long as:

  • The content of the workshops covers the same or similar topics.
  • The PDPs add up to a minimum of 10 (1 content hour = 1 PDP). (Ex: attend three 3-hour workshops & read one journal article focused on SEI/ELL)
  • The MTA recommends using an activity log that clearly identifies the topic and activities included in the “bundle”.
  • Keep all supporting documentation together and save it in case of an audit.
