Possible Areas for Collaboration Among Programs Offering CPD Programs .

There are two obvious areas for OTEC activity.

1. Development of some recommendations for IT knowledge and skills that all teachers should achieve before they are awarded a Continuing License. These might, for example, be aligned with the ISTE recommendations on National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers (which are aimed at preservice teachers), but with additions to reflect the increasing capabilities of teachers who have been on the job for a number of years.
2. Sharing of coursework among the 12 Continuing Licensure programs. For example, this might be done through Distance Learning units of study and/or full length courses.
