How to Get Your PD Credits
Once you successfully complete your course, we'll email you your Certificate of Completion. Most districts accept this as proof of professional development — it includes the course name and hours completed.
University Credits
If your district requires an official university transcript, you can add university credits when you purchase. Once you complete your course, we take care of the rest — we send all the required documentation directly to your chosen university, and they'll issue your official transcript and email you instructions for accessing it. Your transcript will include the course name, course number, number of credits, and your grade.
Graduate-level credits are available through Adams State University, Augustana University, Valley City State University, and Cal Poly Humboldt. Visit our University Partners page to learn more.
A note from us: Your success is important to us, and we want to make sure every course is the right fit for you. Credit acceptance varies by state and district, so if you have any doubt, check with your professional development department before purchasing — and feel free to contact us first. Refunds are not available if credits don't meet your requirements, and we'd rather help you choose right the first time.
Not sure if your district will accept the credit? Most teachers download the course syllabus — you'll find the link right on the course page below the Add to Cart button — and share it with their professional development department. If you need anything else, we're happy to help. Just contact us.
