ISTE SIGIVC 2007
Professional Development: CILC PD Center

Organizational Overview
The Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration (CILC) is a videoconferencing content destination – and a whole lot more! Besides providing access to more than 750 programs that meet national K-12 curriculum standards, we also offer the following products and services in content, consulting, and collaboration. The CILC Professional Development Center lists experts and programs that will help you and your organization improve learning and classroom/daily practice.

Challenge, Problem, Need
The challenge is providing current, practical professional development for staff members that can be effectively and efficiently implemented in the classroom without the high cost of travel and inconvenience of being out of the classroom for instruction time. Or, your need might be that you are a professional development presenter who has much to share with educators but can’t reach those educators.

The Solution: The CILC Professional Development Center
Professional development programs are tailored to your needs and delivered via videoconferencing, webinar or onsite formats. It’s a cost-effective solution to searching for a professional development provider. Professional Development Programs are designed to reach your organization when you need it and created to enhance or broaden skills. You can search the center to access leaders in education who will share their expertise and find programs developed to support professional educational standards.

If you are a professional development provider, this a cost effective way to reach a wide audience and market your availability. As a leader in education, committed to sharing information and expertise with educators via videoconferencing, webinar, and face to face, we invite you to post your information to www.cilc.org where you can market your expertise, programs, knowledge and skills to professional and business members of CILC and to the K-20 Education Community—over 4,000 individual CILC members with 48,000 visits per month. Learn about professional development needs of educators and professionals and receive feedback from your programming to maintain your success. If you are not doing it already, expand your reach through videoconferencing and web-based delivery.

The Results
Current, ‘Just in Time Professional Development’ meets educators right where they need it . . .in their buildings or at their computers through cost-effective videoconferencing or web-based delivery. It’s interactive and offers free flowing conversation and sharing of ideas.
