District Resources & Events

SWREC strives to provide support for member districts to meet the needs of continuing professional development. A mark of highly qualified teachers is the commitment to hone their craft and their willingness to learn new ways of teaching to meet the needs of their diverse students. However, we understand how difficult it can be for administrators to feed the constant demand for good quality, targeted, effective professional development. That’s where we come in!
