The importance of on-going training for permanent teachers is well understood, but what about substitute teachers?
With very little interaction with other teachers and lack of professional learning communities to participate in, substitute teachers are often left to learn on their own.
On-going training for these individuals can have a dramatic affect on their ability to manage a classroom and implement lessons left by the permanent teacher.
In this webinar, Geoffrey Smith, director of STEDI.org, will introduce SubWise™ eMentoring course for substitute teachers.
Training presented in the school district setting goes a long way in helping an individual to become a successful substitute teacher. How is the best method to train substitute teachers on-site? This webinar address some of the issues, concerns and opportunities in live training offered by a school district.

Districts and organizations who hire substitute teachers, find the benefit of requiring training prior to employment. This not only save the school district thousands of dollars each year in processing those individuals who are only looking for a quick paycheck, but it prepares those who really want to teach but lack the training that would help them from day one.
For a personal demonstration, please contact STEDI.org at 800-922-4693 ext 2012.
This webinar is the original in the series of training substitute teachers online and provides valuable information for organizations to implement online training.
