    Alternative Career Credit Opportunities

     

    (Offsite Workshops)

    Prior Authorizations for Offsite Requests must be submitted by May 31, 2025, to be considered for the Career Option I (KSDC) Stipend for the 2024-2025 School Year.

    • If you are interested in attending a workshop which is not sponsored directly by the Staff Center, you can apply for consideration of hours. These workshops are referred to as "Offsite" workshops and may only be used for credit if they occur outside the workday. College courses taken to complete teaching certification requirements are not eligible to be used as career credits. Please refer to page 5 of the KSDC Participant Handbook for more information regarding the Policy Board expectations.
    • You must complete a KSDC Offsite Request form in Frontline PRIOR to the start of the workshop you wish to attend. Prior authorization does not guarantee credits will be awarded, please refer to the handbook linked before for reference.
    • The Staff Center Policy Board reviews offsite requests and makes a determination regarding acceptance or denial. Participants must submit a signed Certificate of Completion before hours will be posted.
