Who Should Apply

• Teams of Paraeducators (Education Support Professionals) and Teachers

Description
The micro-credentials in this stack are meant to be completed by paraeducator-teacher teams. Teams can be any configuration of paraeducators and teachers who work together regularly to support students. They can also include other related service providers (e.g., speech-language pathologists, school nurses, transition specialists, school psychologists), although the design of some of the micro-credentials and related artifacts are specific to the partnership between paraeducators and teachers. Each member of the team must submit for the micro-credential independently. The majority of the work requires the involvement of at least two team members (at least one paraeducator and one teacher/related service provider) but, all team members are not required to submit a micro-credential for review. Certain artifacts must be completed independently, while others can be completed as a team (i.e., team members can submit the same artifact). This will be specified for each artifact in Part 2: Work Examples/Artifacts/Evidence of the Submission Guidelines & Evaluation Criteria section.

This stack is only for Education Support Professionals. If you don't fall into one of the above categories, you will not be eligible to earn any of these Micro-credentials.
