The purpose of the DuPage Regional Office of Education Leadership Development Department is to link schools and districts to profound, significant professional learning activities that help all leaders do their important work better. For the DuPage ROE, this purpose is a moral imperative.
Professional learning is designed to refine and expand knowledge, skills, attitudes, and practices in order to impact student growth through intentional, continuous, and collaborative engagement.
Professional Learning Cohorts are “a set of purposeful, planned actions and the support system necessary to achieve the identified goals” (Killion, Learning Forward). Effective professional learning programs are ongoing, collaborative, and focused on student achievement, allowing participants to take a deeper dive into the content and spend more time reflecting and planning with colleagues in order to have an impact on students. Each professional learning cohort addresses a specific goal or area of focus.
The DuPage Regional Office of Education will provide a wide variety of professional learning options including content related to Leadership. Leadership professional learning delivery systems will be flexible to meet the needs of the leaders
