Dear Colleague,
The Illinois Principals
Associ-ation works daily to improve
the services we provide our
members, which includes
networking, advocacy, and
the topic for this message,
professional development.
Whether it be connecting you with cutting edge
experts or using the latest technology to deliver
high-quality learning experiences right to your
desktop, the IPA strives to help you develop as
an effective educational leader.
To further enhance our professional
develop-ment program, we have aligned our
Administra-tor Academies to six key, research based
Lead-ership Competencies. Our purpose for doing
this is to assist you with more readily identifying
the professional development you need. The
Leadership Competencies and their
respec-tive icon identifiers are shown above. Expect
to see these icons wherever IPA professional
development offerings are shared, including
our two conferences, live webinar events, and
asynchronous content on the Ed Leaders
Net-work (www.edleadersnetNet-work.org).
Moving forward, it is our goal to build on this
alignment effort and create a continuum of
pro-fessional development for you that spans from
year one to retirement. We look forward to
de-signing a comprehensive professional
devel-opment program that incorporates evaluation,
individual reflection, goal setting, and deep
learning experiences. We hope this not only
provides the IPA the opportunity to help you
grow but also allows us to recognize your
ac-complishments.
Exciting times are ahead with much work yet to
be done. In the meantime, please do not
hesi-tate to reach out to me if there’s anything the
IPA or I can do for you.
