Out of District Requests

1. After logging in, click Forms and then the Out-of-District Workshop link.

*If you are submitting this form for parent contact hour DO NOT select a content area or supervisor. You must select Miscellaneous Professional Learning. Content supervisors will not approve parent contact hours.

2. Enter and submit your session information for approval. Every space that is highlighted in RED must have information in it. Even if you do not need a sub, you must list the times in this space for the form to be submitted. If your request is denied or returned to you for more information, you will see one of the messages on your Learning Plan home screen:

If your request is approved, you will see it under the Approved and/or In-Progress heading:

3. Once your session has been approved and attended, click the Manage button beside your session:

You will see this message above notifying you that you must take action.

4. Choose Mark Complete and the request will then go back to your principal or supervisor for final approval. You must complete this step or the request will sit in limbo and the hours will not show.

The session will not show up on your transcript until all of these steps have been completed. You should be able to attach your certificate of completion once you have saved it to your My File Library under your My Info tab on the Navigation Bar.
