Required Training for Online Teachers in Wisconsin

Back in 2008, Wisconsin Act 222 was approved. This state statute requires that anyone who teaches for an online public (including charter) school in Wisconsin be required to complete at least 30 hours of training on online teaching. This act goes into effect this summer, July 2010. Training is intended to equip teachers to transfer the 10 Wisconsin Teacher standards to the online world. In addition, this professional development is expected to be built upon the National Standards for Qaulity Online Teaching.

You can learn more about this as well as the 18 (and counting) programs in Wisconsin that are committed to providing online educational opportunities for Wisconsin students by going here.
