At the request of some instructors, a registration deadline will be listed for some courses. Please note those dates and make every effort to register by the deadline.
The following policies have been developed upon the recommendation of Peconic Teacher Center Policy Board.
In-service credit will be recommended at the rate of one (1) credit per fifteen (15) hours of instruction. For teachers in Shelter Island, one (1) credit per 10 hours of instruction is recommended. The awarding of credit is a matter of district policy usually defined in the collective bargaining agreement. Please review your district's in-service policy prior to registering for a course.
PLEASE NOTE:
A certificate of completion is generated in MyLearningPlan once the participant has COMPLETED AN EVALUATION of the activity and PTC has approved the hours. Upon request of a participant, a certificate of completion, signed by the instructor and the director, will be issued when the course ends. This certificate will indicate that the workshop standards are fully met. The Peconic Teacher Center shall keep a copy of the certificate as a permanent record and will forward one (1) or two (2) copies to each participant. A signed copy of the certificate can be requested by the participant and will be sent to the participant, not the district.
Please note that the granting of in-service credit is a matter of district policy usually defined in the collective bargaining agreement. Please review your district's in-service policy prior to registering for a course.
