Educator Professional Development

Educator Quality is the Key

“As educators we need to understand that there is no finish line in our work. We can always gain more depth and breadth in our work. There are always new discoveries to be made.” - Carol Ann Tomlinson (2011)

Resources for Educators

UW-L’s Office of Continuing Education and Extension (CEE) offers professional development opportunities for individual educators and school districts across the state. Our programs reflect current best practices in the field, respond to specific needs of Wisconsin schools and align with the goals of Agenda 2017*, Wisconsin’s education reform plan.

CEE’s programming supports a key facet of this plan: “to ensure that highly qualified educators are teaching students and leading schools” by providing rigorous and relevant credit courses, workshops and conferences to educators.

We invite you to review our programs for the next several semesters. Detailed information may be accessed by clicking on program titles listed below.
