CERTIFICATED STAFF DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Professional Meetings
All employees shall be provided opportunities for the development of
increased competence beyond that which they may attain through the
performance of their assigned duties through attendance at professional
meetings.
For purposes of this policy, a professional meeting shall be defined as any
meeting that is related to the activities, duties or responsibilities of
Governing Board of Educational Service Center employees as determined by the
Superintendent.
The following conditions must be met for an employee attending professional
meetings:
1. All requests to attend professional meetings shall be made in advance of
the meeting for which approval to attend is sought.
2. Determination of appropriateness and authority to grant permission for
attending a meeting will rest with the Superintendent.
In-service Programs
As part of its objective to furnish professional leadership and consulting
services to local districts in areas they are unable to finance or staff
independently, the Educational Service Center shall develop in-service
programs for continuous staff development and respond to the professional
development needs as they arise in the schools of this county.
The Superintendent or his/her designee shall be responsible for the
development of appropriate in-service programs.
