This year, I’m thrilled to be partnering with Advancement Courses, courses designed to be more engaging, meaningful, and enjoyable– with real feedback and application in today’s K-12 classroom.

online pd for teachers | advancement courses | teachmama.com

Continuing education can be one of the biggest challenges for us as teachers today.

I feel like I’m always asking:

Where are all the relevant, meaningful courses?ย 

Where are all the courses approved by my school and the state?

Where is the professional development that fits my schedule?ย 

Where is the continuing ed that I can afford to pay–on top of everything else I buy as a teacher?

Where are the courses that fit my insanely busy schedule?ย 

Finding professional development courses that work can be sometimes be ridiculously difficult.

I remember at one time, the “best” courses were something I heard about from a friend of a friend’s colleague’s cousin’s sister. Whispered to me at the pool one summer.

At that time, finding the best professional development courses was like hunting for a buried treasure.ย And only a few lucky people had the map.

As educators, we need to make sure our teaching certificates stay valid and that we stay on top of the latest research in our field. But it’s not easy with all the demands that teachers face these days.

Online PD for Teachers — Advancement Coursesย 

That’s why I’m thrilled to have partnered with Advancement Courses this year and to shed some light on graduate-level, continuing education courses for K-12 teachers with re-certification, state licensure, salary schedule or other professional development needs.

Advancement Courses offers:

  • overย 240 graduate-level courses in 19 different subject areasย for salary advancement and re-certification;
  • graduate credit courses throughย 9ย CAEP- and regionally-accredited university partners so they count in every state;
  • letter grades and a transcript directly from the partner institution upon successful course completion;
  • all courses are online and self-paced so you can begin any time (as long as theyโ€™re completed within 6 months);
  • 1, 2 and 3 graduate credit courses available

Discount for YOU!

For my followers, they are offering an exclusive coupon for 20% off if you enter the code TEACHMAMA20 at checkout.

I’ll be working with several of the best of the best educational influencers to shed some light on why we totally turn to Advancement Courses for our own professional development and continuing education.

Stay tuned for a whole lot of coolness from:

  • Kayla Delzer, of Top Dog Teaching
  • Mr. Greg, of Kindergarten Smorgasboard
  • Todd Nesloney, Tech Ninja Todd
  • and more!

And in the next few weeks, Iโ€™ll be chatting LIVE online to share even more about continuing education! Be sure to join us!

With great sadness, I'm writing to share that my brother-in-law, Jeff Mascott passed away from pancreatic cancer earlier this week--at home, surrounded by family and friends. 

The family is very grateful for the community's immeasurable help, encouragement, and prayers over the past several months since Jeff's diagnosis. 

Jeff's obituary will run this weekend in the Post:

Today marks the 4th time in 3 weeks that I have had to hang new Kindness Reminders Tear-off Sheets! 

Makes my heart ๐Ÿฅฐ!! 

Some kids come by every day and give one to a new person. Others take a bunch for the week. One 2nd grade girl comes by evey morning to tell me who she gave hers to the day before. 

Every little bit helps, friend. And every interaction matters!
