Micro-courses allow learning in small steps and are designed to both teach and model competencies and skills related to high-quality instruction. Our micro-courses are typically a combination of online coursework and practical application. Each micro-course may take up to 15 hours to complete. Enrollment is rolling due to the self-paced nature of the course. Districts also have the option of creating their own cohort of participants.

This micro-course is part of a statewide initiative to build capacity for, and expand access to, high quality online instructional resources and provide training for Wisconsin educators in the provision of online and remote instruction. It is being offered at no cost* by the Institute for Personalized Learning, a division of CESA #1, to Wisconsin educators only.
