Congratulations to all who completed the Induction requirements!  Thank you for sharing your wonderful accomplishments with us at the colloquium; it was a tremendous success!  Many have emailed us asking when they will be able to pick up their completion documents.  We understand that you are anxious to process your paperwork for your clear credential; however we ask that you all remain patient. At this time, we do not know exactly when the documents will arrive. As soon as we receive the documents, we will inform you by email.     Networking We will be having a networking session during the summer for those who are on the year-round calendar. The summer networking session will be on Monday, August 11, 2008 starting at 4:45 pm.

If you forget to bring your Individual Professional Development Plan Record to an event we will not be able to sign it after the fact.  E-mail is your only recourse to secure proof of participation or submission of work.  Here is what you need to do:  E-mail a staff person and explain that you forgot your card and of what you need proof We will check our database to see that we have a record of your participation/submission and e-mail you back.  Once received, you must print and staple a copy of the e-mail to your Individual Professional Development Plan Record as verification. jlyttle@lausd.net  = Judy Lyttle fal6716@lausd.net   = Felissa Luque CPR Classes are offered through the District at no charge - visit the Learning Zone to see listings All PTs must have current CPR: Infant, Child and Adult certification at the time they apply for their Clear Credential If the Learning Zone is not offering a class convenient for you, you may take a class at your own cost from any reputable source. Check with The American Heart Association and The Red Cross. DON'T GET CONFUSED between the DISTRICT INTERN BTSA INDUCTION and LAUSD BTSA programs!  If you earned your preliminary credential as a DISTRICT INTERN, you are in our 18 month program. LAUSD BTSA provides a two-year program for those who earned their preliminary credential from a university or out-of-state.  Often people throughout the District do not know there is a difference.    Each year we talk to disappointed PTs who have attended BTSA activities for the wrong program or taken misadvice about program requirements because they did not distinguish themselves as a DISTRICT INTERN BTSA INDUCTION participant.  The moral of the story is know your program!

CLAD Authorization and District Interns in SB 2042 Credential Program: Several questions have been asked regarding the CLAD authorization embedded in the current SB 2042 Credentialing Program. Participating Teachers enrolled in our current program have received CLAD authorization in the Preliminary Credential. They will not need to take the CLAD examinations. The following is a quotation taken from CCTC Coded Correspondence 02-006, dated April 24, 2002: “Coded Correspondence 02-0006, dated April 24, 2002, included the results of a detailed analysis of the CLAD knowledge and skill areas in relation to the new English learner requirement for multiple and single subject teacher preparation programs under AB 1059 and SB 2042. This analysis showed that the English learner authorization under the new standards is sufficiently comparable to the CLAD authorization to allow teachers to teach English learners in regular classrooms and in designated settings. Therefore, the new English learner authorization in AB 1059 and SB 2042 is the same as the CLAD authorization.” For more information, see:  CTC Coded Correspondence 040001: Clarification of Authorizations to Teach English Learners  Thanks, Mary Principal Resources: BTSA Resources ASCD About Learning Critical Friends Group Center for Cognitive Coaching California Learning Interchange Professional Development Websites
