Heartland AEA Implements New Statewide Professional Development Fee Structure

Iowa’s nine AEAs and AEA PD Online are collaborating to move our individual professional development/licensure programs to a statewide PD system, the benefits of which include:

• Access to PD opportunities through a statewide course catalog in a shared registration system.

• Greater equity and consistency to programming while reinforcing the value of learning and credit.

• Generating resources to help support quality PD/licensure programming.

Each AEA will be adjusting to the same participant fee structure to align with the statewide system. Changes for Heartland AEA participants will be effective Jan. 1, 2017. Heartland, as well as the statewide system, will also be increasing the instructor compensation.
