# Requesting a Professional Development Level

Some districts track professional development levels as an incentive for professional growth. As staff members earn credits, they can complete steps to request a professional development level once they achieve the level requirements.

## **Quick Guide**

1. Select **My Portfolio** from the main menu.
2. Select the **Portfolio** tab.
3. Select **My Portfolio** and click **Add New Portfolio Entry**.
4. Select the option for **Request for district professional level** and click **Next**.
5. Select the option for which **professional-level entry** you want to enter and click **Next**.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** Only entries where you have met the minimal requirement will appear in this request list. If you don’t see the level in your list, check **My Portfolio** credits to make sure they match your district requirements for that level.

1. Select **Now** to submit the request, or continue editing your portfolio and submit the request later. When you are ready, click **Next**.
2. Click **Finish** to close the wizard and return to **My Portfolio**.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** You can view the status of a district professional-level request on the **Entry Details** tab in **Portfolio History**.
