Real Time Learning, Real Time Impact

Educators from around the world rate their service on an External Review Team as one of the most powerful professional development experiences in their careers.  We invite you to engage in real time learning and make a real time impact by serving on an External Review Team.  Past team members have found the experience to be both rewarding and inspiring.  The time commitment varies based on whether you serve on an External Review for a school or school system.  Whichever review you serve on, your expertise and knowledge will be invaluable.  You also can use this experience as an opportunity to prepare for your school’s review.  To assist you with gaining insight from and giving the most to the External Review, trained Lead Evaluators are assigned to each review to assist, support and coach the team throughout the process.    

If you are interested in this great opportunity, please contact our office my emailing Debbie Price, dprice@advanc-ed.org or Keith Shaffer, kshaffer@advanc-ed.org

Stakeholder Series Brochures Available Online

AdvancED is now offering our Stakeholder Series brochures for institutions to download.  The brochures are geared toward parents and the community, educators and school board members and can be accessed from the School, School System and Early Learning Extranet Accreditation Resources and Tools Web pages as well the AdvancED Communications Kit.  Schools and school systems are encouraged to use the Parent/Community brochure at Parent-Teacher Association meetings and the Educator brochure to familiarize educators with accreditation.  School boards can use the School Board brochure to gain insight into accreditation while contemplating the decision to apply for accreditation.  If you need assistance with accessing these resource pages, please contact Debbie Price, dprice@advanc-ed.org.
