Each participant who has successfully completed the required courses within a proficiency level will receive a certificate issued jointly by the Essex County ETTC and the New Jersey Department of Education. Please be reminded that in order to complete the requirements for certification, you must be present from 9am - 3pm each day. The Essex County ETTC is offering the Beginner Technology Proficiency Courses during the Year 2001 summer sessions. Each course is 5 hours and can be completed on either a Mac or PC platform. You do not have to be working toward a certificate to sign up for a course.
All courses are open to certificate participants and non-certificate participants.
Proficiency Courses will also be offered throughout the 2001- 2002 school year for those who cannot attend all of the courses during the summer. All courses count toward your 100 hours of Professional Development. The workshop includes a culminating project which incorporates the skills of all of the beginner proficiency courses. This workshop covers finding WebQuests on the Internet and writing original WebQuests for classroom use. This may become part of the students' records as they move from grade to grade.
