How does your required training compared to that of academic teachers for certification to be in the classroom? Do you feel it is adequate and/or appropriate?

Our state CTE PD is excellent. I feel I get more than I did from my social studies pd

I can never seem to find professional development that relates to my CTE content. I end up doing things that I can sort of use or that I think will at least not be boring.

I have to renew my CTE license every 5 years, and keep records of my PD. Most of my District PD does very little to satisfy that. Most recently all CTE teachers had to have SEI endorsements to maintain their CTE licenses, so they had to complete courses to get that.

School districts supply only basic training (sexual harassment, bullying, blood borne pathogens). Districts usually support the core subject PD like math, science, history, English, EL. CTE teachers have always found, and will continue to find their own PD related to their courses. It’s pretty slim pickings out there especially when the district won’t fund the training. Thank goodness for Perkins!!

Question about inclusion…. I’ve been teaching inclusion for 5 years so I’m still a newb, but a first year coworker of mine said she got points off on her observation because her kids were scattered in the classroom and she was having to move from kid to kid to assist. While I see the point of putting them together for convenience, I don’t agree with this at all! To me this is like singling them out by putting them all together instead of INCLUDED amongst peers. What do y’all think?
