Courses and Workshops
 

You may need to check all three categories to locate specific courses; the listings are separate. 

EmployeeNet (the MCSD Intranet) is available only from the MCSD Wide Area Network (WAN); if you try to access it at home, you will see an error message.

CATEGORY INFORMATION
A.  General Courses The Staff Development Office no longer distributes a SD booklet listing the course offerings.  Courses are posted on the MCSD Intranet (EmployeeNet) and the MCSD website. The listing on EmployeeNet is regularly updated, and the listing for non-MCSD employees on the website is periodically updated.

Tuition for MCSD employees will be paid through PAYROLL DEDUCTION. Tuition fees of $10.00 per PLU for each professional learning course will be deducted from your paycheck during the pay period following the end of the course.

Participants outside MCSD can view courses on the MCSD website, print out the registration form, and send it along with the fees ($10 per PLU) to the Staff Development Department,1120 Bradley Drive, Columbus, GA 31906.

B.  Technology Courses These classes offer one or more clock hours that can be banked during one school year in units of ten clock hours per one PLU.  Remaining hours cannot be accumulated past the current school year, which ends June 30. Totals of fewer than ten clock hours of technology classes are dropped.
C.  Best Practices Workshops These classes are designed for new MCSD teachers, who must complete five two-hour classes in order to be credited with one PLU at the end of the school year.  Credit for fewer than 10 hours cannot be carried over to the next year. Totals of fewer than ten clock hours of BPW classes are dropped.
