CASE Collaborative

A Professional Development Subgroup of the CASE Committee was formed in 2004 to identify and address the professional development needs of staff.

Administrators and special education staff from CASE member districts, CASE staff, and professionals from other collaboratives have registered for these professional development opportunities. CASE Professional Development Programs are based on proactive feedback and are designed to meet the instructional challenges that educators face on a daily basis. The intended outcome is enhanced learning and teaching.
