New York State Regulations and More Information
For more information on CTLE, review the New York State Education Department website (opens in a new window), which explains that each CTLE certificate holder is responsible for maintaining a CTLE Individual Record Form (opens in a new window). You can use the Certificate of Completion as supporting documentation for the CTLE Individual Record form. Per the instructions on the CTLE Individual Record form, participants do not need to submit any documentation to the State unless specifically requested to do so.
The Office of School Wellness Programs will follow New York State’s recordkeeping and certifying regulations to ensure that records of CTLE activities are maintained for eight years, as required by law.

Equity and Inclusion Resources
The equity resources listed below are provided by the Office of School Wellness Programs to assist teachers, administrators, and wellness champions as they develop an equity lens to view all areas of their work, with the goal of encouraging culturally responsive approaches to Physical Education, Health Education, and wellness programs that are relevant to their own school communities.
Professional Learning Policies and Expectations
Digital Citizenship: The Office of School Wellness Programs promotes positive digital citizenship (opens in new window) and practices that lead to safe, effective online learning. In accordance with the NYCPS Internet Acceptable Use Policy (opens in new window), the Office of School Wellness Programs reserves the right to terminate any user’s access to our online professional learning opportunities and online communities, at any time, should activities/posts be deemed inappropriate or in violation of this policy.
Participation: We love professional learning in person because we have the opportunity to learn from each other face to face. Virtual PLOs also afford us many conveniences, so in order to maintain the same level of engagement, we ask that you fully engage with the presenters, the materials, and each other. Full engagement will ensure that you are also able to attain CTLE credit for the session. If you are experiencing technological issues preventing active participation, please inform the facilitators immediately. “Full engagement” includes but is not limited to: accessing the online sessions via a computer or mobile device (preferably located in a space with minimal distractions and not while in transit), completing pre-work (where applicable), and participating in all activities in the session. Contributions to the “chat,” polls, midpoint check ins on google forms, breakout discussions, feedback surveys, and any tasks included in the session are required and appreciated. Being on camera for webinars is also strongly recommended. We thank you for your time and commitment to student learning and we look forward to working with you during our professional learning sessions.
