A Little Something Extra for Educators this February!
Through February 26th, save $50 on every course with university credit or save $25 on every course-only option. To expand our credit offerings, PDI is proud to announce a new university partnership with the American College of Education (ACE). This partnership allows PDI to offer graduate-level, degree-eligible credit for all our online courses. Now you can choose from three flexible enrollment options designed to support credential renewal, salary advancement, and professional growth.
The Professional Development Institute has been offering professional development courses for teachers for over 28 years. PDI partners with respected universities to offer credit options through the American College Education (ACE), which provides degree-eligible, graduate-level credit, and the University of California San Diego Division of Extended Studies, which offers post-baccalaureate professional credit. Our online courses are designed to help teachers learn practical strategies to use immediately in the classroom. Many teachers use PDI's online continuing education courses to satisfy credential renewal or salary advancement requirements.
