Region 2 North East Regional Curriculum Committee Members

As the assistant/associate/deputy superintendent of your county, you are the local faculty responsible for finalizing and verifying the enrollment.

How do educators earn the hours?

Each unit of credit is based on 15 hours of instructional contact. The hours may be earned in combination with a variety of delivery systems, e.g., an ETN program of two hours followed by a two-hour workshop conducted by a curriculum specialist. The educator can then count four hours towards the unit of credit.

What is required by you as the county agent?

•  Each participant's attendance must be verified by the facilitator using an attendance sheet. You need to maintain an attendance sign-in sheet for each program and keep a copy on file.

•  Regional & Continuing Education does not roll hours from one term to the next--educators must keep track of 15-hour increments on their attendance sheet and use separate forms if they wish to apply hours to different terms.

•  The final enrollment requesting the units requires your signature verifying the information to be true and accurate.

•  You may, at your discretion, require additional course work in order to earn the requested credit.

•  If there is no sign-off by you, no credit will be granted. Your signature is required on the enrollment verification form.

•  A late fee of $10.00 per class will apply after the following dates:

•  Summer 2009: August 1, 2009 (Valid hours from 8/1/08-8/1/09) Transcripts available after August 1, 2009

•  Fall 2009: December 1, 2009 (Valid hours from 12/1/08-12/1/09) Transcripts available after December 1, 2009

•  Spring 2010: Due May 1, 2010 (Valid hours from 5/1/09-5/1/10) Transcripts available after May 1, 2010

•  All hours submitted for credit must have occurred within the dates listed for each term. No future hours will be considered for credit.

•  Fees are $60 per unit of credit. Fees are subject to change.

How to start:

Click here for the enrollment/attendance verification form and educator information. You may want to link this site to your own website to facilitate access for individual educators. It will be their responsibility to maintain this record. Verification forms may be submitted at any time during the semester. A verification form is required for each educator and course (i.e., two forms need to be completed to enroll in INTD 859 and INTD 860). These courses are graded credit/no credit and do not meet degree or credential requirements. The maximum number of units that can be earned in a single term is ten.
