WSSDA's online learning opportunities continue this fall with four courses offered through Seattle Pacific University. The 6- and 10-week course topics include using data, board-superintendent relations, the Key Work model and the newly developed course on engaging the community.

Participants praise the opportunity to work with other board members, superintendents and administrators around the state and the friendships and networks they build during the stimulating learning process.

"WSSDA’s online courses make it possible for board members to fit training into their busy schedules," said Chuck Namit, WSSDA’s Assistant Executive Director of Board Development. "They can learn at their own pace in the comfort of their own homes."

These courses are offered in conjunction with Seattle Pacific University. The cost for all WSSDA/SPU courses is $75, which includes continuing education units, or clock hours, or $150 for three units of academic college credit. Participants must also purchase the books that accompany each course.

Registrations for fall courses are due August 18. For detailed information and registration forms, click here, or contact WSSDA's Connie Lauderdale at 360/252-3009
