STAFF PD REQUIREMENTS

To continue or start employment with North Texas Adult Education & Literacy, all staff are required to do a certain amount of professional development (PD) hours for the school year. Good rule of thumb is all part-time staff are required to obtain 15 PD hours within the school year. You are not allowed to complete your PD hours on the clock because you will be getting paid for completing those hours at the disclosed PD rate. After completing a training you are required to print/download the certificate and give/email the certificate to your PD Coordinator. You will not be awarded any hours if you do not inform your current supervisor. Below are the requirements for both new and current staff, please review and be aware of due dates.

Newly Hired Staff must complete the first 6 hours of their 15 PD Hours within 30 days of employment:

- 3 Hours under the category Principles of Adult Learning (PAL)
- 3 Hours under the category Literacy Instruction (LIT)

- 3 Hours under the category Literacy Instruction (LIT)
- The remaining hours (6) should be completed in any of the categories
(Other, Assessment, PAL or LIT) by June 30, 2023
