PGSD Online Courses
WELCOME!
Before registering for a course, please take a moment to read this page and the pages in the menu above which will give you an overview of the online course program.
Please note that the training offered below is different from the face-to-face training offered by the CTL and from training administered by Eva Harvell, Stoney Rogers, and Jeannie Steer.
Online Courses at a Glance:
The Technology Department offers a variety of online courses. The online courses are accessible from any computer and anywhere you have Internet access. In other words, you learn at your own rate (within schedule limits) and set your own times.
The Technology Dept. has no laptops to loan or computers to spare. One should have a good home computer and broadband Internet connection that can pass the system requirements or you should plan to use a school computer during your non-duty time. If you plan to use a school computer, be sure to get principal approval to use it during your planning periods or end of the work day.
The majority of these courses, especially the Microsoft Office courses will be available to Licensed and Classified personnel, including assistants. CEU credits are available for Licensed staff.
