The New York State Migrant Education Program is introducing a new form of professional development (PD) for Migrant Educators.

Indeed, well-done PD is crucial for all teachers, but the idea of losing a day of valuable tutoring time leaves many Migrant Educators scrambling for more time to fit in workshops and training among already very busy schedules. PD should not cause apprehension, but be seen as a valuable part of work life, career-building, and life-long learning.

Let’s be honest, PD training needs to be flexible. Give me options people!

The Migrant Education Program for the North Country New York METS has been highlighted in the October 2017 edition of "Provost's Corner" by the Provost of SUNY Potsdam.
