April marks one year since Learning Forward released revised Standards for Professional Learning. Over the past year, thousands of educators have learned about standards through webinars, networks, and professional learning communities; used standards tools, publications, and innovation Configuration maps; and shared with us how they are changing their practices as a result.
Learning Forward will dedicate April 24-28 to celebrating a year of leading and teaching with the revised standards. We will highlight resources that support implementation of high-quality professional learning and showcase a set of new tools. Visit lf.wphlab.com for more details.
Learning Forward is the only professional association devoted exclusively to those who work in educator professional development. We help our members plan, implement, and measure high-quality professional learning so they can achieve success with their systems, schools, and students.
