Panel Discussion: Leveraging the CARES Act for Quality PD
October 19, 2020
You are not alone if you struggle to navigate the changes from the CARES Act, Title Funding, and the new carryover rules. Watch our past webinar below and learn from expert panelists at K20Connect how to provide high-quality professional development opportunities to your current and aspiring school leaders through the CARES Act.
In this webinar, you will learn about the following:
The impact of the CARES Act on K-12 Education
The Governor’s Emergency Education Relief Fund (GEER Fund)
The Rethink K-12 School Models & Continue to Learn Microgrants
Waivers for carryover funds
When confronted with challenging situations, school leaders sift through their past experiences, searching for relevant instances to draw knowledge. If learning from your mistakes is the best way to experience growth, how do we provide these learning experiences to current and aspiring leaders?
At SchoolSims, we have created the solution by providing manufactured experiences through online software simulations that assist in growing current and aspiring school leaders. Educators can facilitate simulations in person or through any online meeting service. When gathering in groups is discouraged or impossible, online simulation training can be safely and effectively deployed.
The Pandemic has significantly impacted our schools and created an environment filled with challenges. In this simulation, you will face, prioritize, and deal with various issues and challenges associated with transitioning to and working in a virtual environment. You will deal with trade-offs between academic rigor and engagement, as well as maintaining structures and systems while building and sustaining relationships, all while managing the satisfaction of many stakeholders with very diverse needs.
