SUMMARY:Protecting Privacy: Improving Your Practice Facilitated Online Course Spring 2022
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Privacy: Improving Your Practice Facilitated Online Course Spring 2022 \nMeets online every *Wednesday from 1:00 PM-2:00 PM ET January 19th – March 9th\, 2022.\n*Sessions are recorded if you are unable to attend on a particular day. \n\n \nThe 8-week class will focus on the implementation of your school system’s student data polices and takes a deep dive into securing your network and developing a data governance plan. Candidates who aspire to achieve the TLE will gain tools and resources to prepare for your Trusted Learning Environment application. \nSince 1992\, the Consortium for School Networking (CoSN) has been working with education technology leaders to develop practical resources that help school technology decision-makers provide the kind of leadership their School Systems need so that students can experience technology-rich learning environments. \nLaws are changing\, and the conversations around student privacy are evolving daily. Because of the complexities involved\, stakeholders come to the discussion from different perspectives and\, therefore\, sequence content in various ways. This introductory course is intended as professional development for School System leaders—not legal advice. Considering the highly technical nature of privacy laws and policies\, school leaders should always seek the advice of legal counsel regarding such issues. Please see the disclaimer below. \nParticipants successfully completing the course will receive a Certificate of Completion\, earn 9 CEA Credits toward CETL® recertification and have access to the course materials for one full year.\nThis course is regularly updated with current information by our subject matter expert and instructor\, Melissa Tebbenkamp.

SUMMARY:EmpowerED Superintendent Webinar: Interoperability: Seamlessly Sharing Data\, Content\, and Services Within School District Systems or Applications (Free)
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, February 14\, 2022 @ 5:00 pm – 6:00 pm EDTPresented by Dr. Doug Brubaker\, Superintendent\, Texarkana Independent School District (TX); Dr. Michael T. Conner\, Superintendent\, Middletown Public Schools (CT); and Dr. Mary Wegner\, Assistant Professor and Superintendent and Educational Leadership Coordinator\, School of Education at the University of Alaska Southeast \nOver the past two years\, K–12 education institutions have increasingly looked to digital content and e-learning technologies to meet their ever-evolving education needs and goals. When effectively implemented\, technology-based products\, services\, and resources can have a very positive impact on education as well as improve efficiency and outcomes in teaching\, learning\, and classroom and school management. And yet\, as reliance on technology tools for learning and school operations grows and users become more sophisticated in implementing technology tools\, gaps in the integration and interfaces among different applications can still pose problems and challenges. \nIn this edWebinar\, school leaders share successful policies\, strategies\, and training solutions to help districts assure the interoperability of their academic and operational systems.
