Managing Events in the PD Registry for PQAS Instructors
The Pennsylvania Quality Assurance System (PQAS) is offering some reminders on the process for managing events in the Professional Development (PD) Registry for approved PQAS instructors and professional learning organizations.
All rosters must be complete and accurate within two weeks, including marking an event as complete. Instructors are expected to communicate with participants when training is verified on the PD’s Learning Record. The system will close events automatically after 60 days.
To get an event reopened, email [email protected] with the event’s ID number, title, and dates.
