Hello teachers and counselors!

Are you considering working toward your National Board certification this school year? Unsure of where to start or what it will look like during remote learning? To learn more, please register to join one of two September webinars scheduled at 4 p.m. on September 10 and 29 on Zoom. The webinars are hosted by the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction (View OSPI flyer)

Do you need to renew your certification? Starting this candidate cycle, National Board will be implementing a new, five-year Maintenance of Certification (MOC) process. If you are interested in attending WEA’s MOC Jump Start, please preregister here.

Looking for local National Board support throughout the school year? Usually, we facilitate a National Board cohort in Olympia but we know this upcoming school year is going to be unique. We aren’t sure what our National Board cohort will look like, but we hope to have enough interest to offer an opportunity for both new and renewal National Board candidates to come together to deepen their understanding of their own teaching with the guidance of trained facilitators. Please let one of us know asap if you are interested!
