Educator Support and Effectiveness

A Note to Candidates

It is our goal to provide you with a rewarding experience that will build your professional skills, foster life-long peer relationships, and establish positive practices that will impact the lives of all of your students and their families. This online handbook is intended as a reference guide to the Ventura County Educator Support and Effectiveness (ESE) Credential Programs. Each candidate has specific responsibilities for completion of their specialized program. The Handbook has been prepared to help candidates become aware of their roles and the roles of ESE staff. It has been assembled with sections pertaining to the overall program, including policies and procedures, individual responsibilities, and additional resources. Although the ESE Handbook is not intended to be all-inclusive, it does provide a comprehensive overview of ESE credential programs, including suggestions, recommendations, and requirements designed to facilitate an effective program. Review its contents carefully, and know your responsibilities.
