REMINDER: Important Information for Antioch University Continuing Education Credits at the Graduate Level Participants

And another item from Tuesday’s inbox…

This is a reminder that the current provider of continuing education credits at the graduate level for eligible EdTech Leaders Online (ETLO) courses, Antioch University Seattle, is closing its continuing education department at the end of June. We are in the process of forming a partnership with a new graduate credit provider. In the meantime, we have important information for current and past Antioch University continuing education credits at the graduate level participants.

If you are currently enrolled in a cohort or have recently successfully completed an ETLO online professional development course that is eligible for continuing education credits at the graduate level and wish to obtain credit, please complete all requirements and submit your paperwork to your ETLO facilitator no later than June 1. The additional course requirements for continuing education credits at the graduate level can be obtained by visiting:
http://go.edc.org/etlocredit
.
If you have received or are in the process of obtaining credit from Antioch University Seattle, it is highly recommended that you request your official transcript from Antioch University no later than June 15. Visit the Antioch University Continuing Education Transcript Request Website for details about how to request your transcript and to download the Antioch Continuing Education Transcript Request Form.

Please contact Joyce Balich at jbalich@edc.org if you have any questions.
