Iowa Dept. of Education Transitions from EdInfo System to EdPortal After Dec. 31
As was stated in the Department's December School Leader Update, all applications currently available at www.edinfo.state.ia.us will be available only though the Iowa Department of Education Portal after December 31, 2012. EdInfo users with an A&A (Authentication and Authorization) account will be migrated to the portal and will retain access to the same applications as currently available to them. In order to migrate users, the e-mail address on the A&A account must match the email address on a user's EdInfo account. For more information about creating an A&A account or verifying email addresses on the two systems, click here.

UNI's Continuing and Distance Education to Offer Online Master of Arts in Education
University of Northern Iowa's Continuing and Distance Education is accepting applications for its upcoming Professional Development for Teachers cohort degree program, beginning in the fall of 2013 and leading to a Master of Arts in Education degree.
This program is designed to fulfill the professional development needs for classroom teachers and other teaching professionals who wish to deepen their understanding of the teaching and learning process. Students will have a variety of opportunities to develop strategies for implementing innovative practices in the classroom and for thoughtful analysis of issues and problems facing teachers.
"This program is especially well-suited to busy teachers who are interested in a cohort-based master's program that challenges them to expand their expertise in a broad range of educational topics," says program coordinator Michelle Tichy.
This degree will be earned online. Coursework begins in the fall of 2013 using a cohort model in which a group of students moves together through a course sequence, with the degree to be awarded in the summer of 2015. To learn more about the program and how to apply, visit www.uni.edu/continuinged/prof-dev-for-teachers.
