Professional Learning

Developing the BEST

Through Professional Learning, teachers in the Lowndes County School System have the opportunity to acquire and increase their content knowledge, develop and refine their instructional skills, and therefore become part of a highly motivated and trained corps of instructional teacher/leaders. This department is committed to providing the training and support needed to become and sustain a quality teaching staff. Professional learning opportunities are available through the following: school-based courses, system-based courses, Coastal Plains RESA, Valdosta State University, Abraham Baldwin College, and Wiregrass Technical College.

Professional Learning for Paraprofessionals are available online through ParaEducator Now.

Questions concerning certification should be addressed to the Lowndes County Schools Department of Human Resources. Additional information and state certification requirements are available at the Georgia Professional Standards website.
