Dear Educator:
The goal of the Institute of Professional Development is to provide affordable, online, evidence-based content and relevant professional development experiences to improve educators' knowledge, skills and performance.
The Institute offers customized coursework in partnership with educational organizations, districts and states to comply with specifications and standards in the areas of science, reading, math and technology. These are offered in a variety of formats with high-quality content and professional interactions. All programs are 100% online, job embedded, and scalable.
At the Institute of Professional Development, we are fortunate to have some of the most esteemed thinkers and practitioners in the field of education. Our professional development programs are designed and taught by those still active in their fields, allowing them to offer practical information that will increase educators' knowledge and sharpen their instructional and leadership skills. Students taking the courses are able to immediately apply these new strategies, techniques and resources in the classroom or school.
We especially look forward to working with you to develop programs customized for your organization, district or state. Please contact me at stacey.hughes@ace.edu to discuss ways we can begin formatting professional development programs from nationally recognized experts that are unique to your needs.
We look forward to being a part of your efforts to provide high quality education for your students.
Sincerely,
Stacey Hughes, Ph.D. Vice President, Institute of Professional Development
