Professional Development
The smartest PD option for your district - the system will immediately suggest PD resources as part of evaluations. PD content in TEAMS (and sources such as ASCD) is mapped to specific evaluation measures and domains, allowing evaluators to select the most optimal and relevant content.


Continuous Improvement

TEAMS has a built-in PD recommendation engine that identifies appropriate PD content based on evaluation outcomes. PD content can be assigned by supervisors, and teachers and principals can preview the content and commit to completing them. PD content usage is tracked and its users can provide reflections and star ratings. Supervisors have the ability to revisit/re-observe the evaluee to analyze the impact of the PD in their classroom. School districts can offer PD content from their own content libraries or from the TEAMS PD content repository, which links to high quality, standards aligned content from TEAMS partners. School districts can also include links to other sites for for mandated, licensure requirements.

TEAMS customers are excited about the ability to integrate professional development strategies from local agencies. These PD resources allow for continuous improvement and PD course credit offerings by state agencies. TEAMS also provides a great customer support staff to assist users and solve issues or add enhancements that may improve the evaluation process.
