What are Virtual Learning Communities? Virtual Learning Communities (VLCs) offer CarolinaCAP candidates and residents a monthly space to come together and develop new skills in coaching, collaboration, and co-teaching. This month’s VLC focus is “Motivating Students.” VLCs are just one of the many supports CarolinaCAP offers to our candidates and residents. #SpurringInnovation

Teaching and learning don’t exist in isolation—they thrive together.

The CarolinaCAP coaching model connects each pathway candidate and resident with a site-based coach or coaching teacher. Through one-on-one coaching, these aspiring educators are supported by veteran educators in their school building. Learn more about the pathway. https://lnkd.in/gtua4pic #SpurringInnovation

We’re proud to share that mCrED is at the forefront of operationalizing Micro-Credential Quality Assurance Standards (QAS). As one of only four states participating in this groundbreaking initiative, our commitment to?personalized?professional learning excellence is stronger than ever. Along with the South Carolina Department of Education (SCDE) and educators from North Carolina, Wyoming, and Arkansas, we’ve developed and piloted a comprehensive rubric that brings QAS to life. This tool ensures that micro-credentials are designed, implemented, and assessed with the highest quality, benefiting educational leaders and lifelong learners. ? The recent brief?on this project reports updates, insights, and recommendations for further refining and validating these standards. Enhancing?the quality of micro-credentials supports impactful professional growth across our education system. Stay tuned as we continue collaborating and leading efforts to prioritize quality and innovative professional development practices.?
