If a district has developed its own forms to document paraprofessionals’ participation in professional development, can these forms be used for the Performance/Portfolio Assessment?
Professional development hours completed prior to participation in the Performance/Portfolio Assessment may be submitted on the district approved form, provided the form incorporates a summary and analysis per Form D of the Performance/Portfolio Assessment. Once a paraprofessional begins the assessment process, all professional development hours must be documented on Forms C and D.
