Online Professional Development Courses for Teachers

Online Courses April 18 to May 15, 2011

Since 2005, the Georgia Office of Adult Education (OAE) has offered online professional development courses for teachers. The courses represent an opportunity for motivated teachers to enhance their understanding of a selected topic. Although the courses focus on important practical issues, they are designed to be intellectually challenging and include reading, internet discussions, and brief writing activities. The instructors are nationally recognized authorities in their course content.

This year we are offering eight courses, all during the four week period, April 18 to May 15. Please review the Course Descriptions and Frequently Asked Questions (below) to learn more about the courses.
