Free System Orientations

Each subscription includes a demonstration/orientation for administrators or other key staff that is delivered via the Internet. The orientation sessions are scheduled several times each month, and allow users to participate right from their own desks! Participants simply register in advance, type a specified address into their browsers, and dial into a teleconference to participate in a live orientation of the major features of the site. 

CreativeCurriculum.net Technical Training Seminars

Subscribers may attend hands-on technical training seminars for administrators, supervisors, or trainers that are offered at regular intervals throughout the year. Registration for the seminars is managed by our Professional Development Department. The seminars are delivered in small computer labs or in our Professional Development Center so every participant can benefit from direct instruction on all of the functions of the system.

Additional Training by Contract

We believe the technical aspects of CreativeCurriculum.net are secondary to the day-to-day classroom work teachers do to document each child's progress. Because the system is so user-friendly, and there are many resources for help, the one-hour orientation should be enough to get key staff (trainers, supervisors, administrators, and/or technical staff) ready to train teachers on the online system. But, if there's a need for more training, we recommend that subscribers invest in training on The Creative Curriculum for Preschool Developmental Continuum Assessment System for Ages 3 - 5 for CreativeCurriculum.net users, which is delivered on-site or at one of our summer conferences.

On-site Training and Summer Conference Workshops on Assessment

Workshops on The Creative Curriculum for Preschool Developmental Continuum Assessment System for Ages 3 - 5 for CreativeCurriculum.net users are designed for teachers and administrators to focus on the appropriate implementation of our assessment system. Participants learn how to observe and record observations, make decisions about each child's progress on the Developmental Continuum and how to translate those skills using the online system. This workshop does not include hands-on work on the computer, but are provided with a demonstration of key elements of the online system as they relate to the assessment process itself. Learn more about onsite professional development.

Conferences are typically held between June and August in various cities throughout the United States.  Rates vary depending on the sessions participants attend.  Click here to learn more about specific conference locations and dates.
