In partnership with local colleges and universities, PLS
3rd Learning has delivered professional learning to
thousands of educators for over 40 years. Our graduate
and Professional Development classes pay off for you
and your students by teaching you new skills to use in
your classroom tomorrow.
Classes are led by experienced educators and
conveniently offered online or face-to-face. Each
course delivers valuable content backed by research,
and participants earn three hours of graduate credit for
each on-site or online class. Credits can be applied to
teacher recertification, movement on the salary scale,
PD requirements or select Master's Degrees.
Our class sizes are small, ensuring that every student
receives personalized attention and the opportunity
for valuable collaboration with other participants.
Every course is aligned to Danielson's Framework for
Teaching-to encourage educators to analyze, assess
and improve their professional practices.
