Learning Forward launched its first self-paced online course, Introduction to Standards for Professional Learning. Over four hours, educators can become acquainted with the standards and discover what fundamental components are essential to a comprehensive learning system. Through the lens of the standards, learners reflect on implications of this framework for their systems, schools, and their individual roles. Featuring videos, readings, reflection activities, and more, this course guides you to a deeper understanding of the standards. Learners who complete the course will receive a certificate for four hours of professional learning. Learn more at learningforward.org/online-courses-2/.
