Requesting a Professional Development Level

Some districts track Professional Development Levels as an incentive for professional growth. As staff members are awarded credits, they can complete steps to request a Professional Development Level as they achieve level requirements. 

Quick Guide:

5. Select Now to submit the request, or continue editing your portfolio and submit the request later. When you are ready, click Next.
