The DOE was scheduled to send out a letter this past November 2010 on how to report your state-mandated professional development hours. The New York State Education Department requires teachers to show that they have taken 175 hours of PD every five years after achieving their professional certification. The letter also explains how to get your hours approved by your principal and how to report to the DOE.
As before, the UFT recommends that all teacher with professional certificates keep their own logs and any documentation that shows the date, hours, and title of the PD you have taken.
