WVTA Professional Development Committee
The WVTA ProD Committee meets regularly and includes representatives from each school site. A focus of these meetings is for ProD reps to share what is occurring at each site, and to support ProD reps in acquiring leadership skills to facilitate and support the school-based professional development at their school.
The Professional Development Fund now includes what was previously called the School Effectiveness Fund, and the criteria guiding the allocation of the Professional Development Fund has been broadened accordingly. Please review the new criteria on the second page of the ProD Funding Application Form.
