    ONE-DAY SEMINAR SUBSCRIPTION PROGRAM

    2020-2021

     

     

    As a school administrator, there are two very important aspects of your life, which warrant continual attention: the honing of your professional/technical skills to assist in the running of your school districts and optimum success in your personal life. 

    NJASA is committed to the self-development of our members to achieve goals of professional and personal growth.  Your Association also understands that the foundation of professional development is a self-directed and self-driven process designed to enhance the knowledge, skills and values of administrators, along with a formal recognition of achievement. 

    To that end, NJASA has designed a comprehensive professional development program, which will: 

      1. Provide sufficient programming choices to satisfy the varying needs of our members. 

     

      1. Offer low-cost attendance fees, through a professional development subscription, which may be purchased by your school district. 

     

      1. Provide Professional Development hours to satisfy state mandates. 

     

     

     ONE-DAY SEMINAR SCHEDULE
