ISTE-T Certification is an internationally recognized certification program that engages teachers in a deeply reflective, intensive process to determine if their instructional technology practices meet the teachers standards set forth by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE).

This certification program offered by ACPS is a hybrid course using both face-to-face meetings and online communications to assist teachers through the rigorous submission of 20 teaching artifacts and reflections over an 12 month period.

Teachers who complete the process and become certified will earn 100 recertification points, 3 graduate credits from James Madison University and will be given a choice of pre-selected technology tools for ACPS instructional use. In the past teachers have received an iPad, 3 iPod Touches, or 6 digital voice recorders.

This opportunity is for self-directed learners, confident in their use of technology, and eager to measure their use of technology in the classroom against an international standard.
