Development opportunities for teachers–workshops, networking, educational credits
You look out for your students every day, but who’s looking out for you? California Council on Economic Education, CCEE, is! As educators ourselves, we understand how the personal development to-do items fall to the bottom of the list when there are so many young people to focus on, not to mention your family and personal lives.
Your career and professional development deserve the same focus you give your students each day. We suggest you make a manageable goal for yourself and participate in one activity per year. Over time, your career will benefit from accumulating new contacts and learning from others. You deserve it.
