We offer peer review, linkage with content experts, and collegial support.
Participants will engage in this workshop using the online learning platform Google Meet.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
Participants will examine component instructions and content area standards in their specific certificate area they are working towards for their National Board Certification.

Amy Klose
I became a National Board Certified Teacher in Adolescent / Young Adulthood Mathematics in 2010. Since achieving my certification, I have attended multiple facilitator training sessions in the Albany, NY region to collaborate on how to best support candidates who are currently on their NBC journey. I currently work with other colleagues in the Far West community and statewide to help more teachers become Nationally Board Certified.Kathleen Reiser
I have been a secondary English teacher for 18 years, teaching English and supporting struggling learners with AIS/RtI services. My background is in secondary English, with a Masters in Diagnostic Reading Instruction. I am a Nationally Board Certified teacher, and provide support for new and current NBCT candidates. I am currently working as an Instructional Support Specialist, having worked originally in Secondary English (Grades 5-12), and am now working to support Secondary RtI/AIS. Teaching workshops allows me to work directly with teachers, helping them grow and advance in their own professional development. I truly believe in teachers supporting other teachers.Date | Day | Time | Location |
