Required Action: Registration Process for Staff Members for Heartland Professional Learning Opportunities

Heartland staff members have had questions regarding the registration process for professional learning opportunities. The following is meant to provide clarification on this process. Prior to registration, staff members must receive approval from their supervisor to attend the professional learning opportunity.

• If taking the opportunity for advancement on the salary schedule:
- Days must be off contract.
- The employee must pay registration fee.
-
Course approval must be completed and approved by supervisor. PRIOR TO beginning the course.
- Universal Registration is used for registration.


• If taking the opportunity but not using it to advance on the salary schedule:

- If no special course fee: register using Universal Registration and selecting “Heartland employee fee” option.

- If course fee: Call Carol Naylor in Professional Development (ext. 14443) to register.

Also, if you are registered for a course and then cannot attend, please contact Professional Development to cancel your registration. This is necessary for several reasons. First, spaces in courses are limited. Additionally, there will be no fee so the money that your supervisor paid for the course will remain in your budget. Last, food and handout numbers will then be accurate. Thank you for following this process.
