Professional Learning Communities are an invaluable experience to grow professionally and build a sense of community with colleagues. You form a group, identify a topic, coordinate dates and times. If you’d like MESPA to apply for CEUs for you, the group has to meet for a total of 6 hours throughout the course of the year (for example, 4 times for 1.5 hours each). Then, send Christine a brief outline of what you plan to learn and talk about. When your 6 hours are done, send Christine an attendance sheet. This is a great way to earn 6 CEUs while learning about what you care about and building a community of support.
