Huge Savings for WCRIS Members Using QEI
New educators and teachers licensed after 2004 must complete Professional Development Plans in order to obtain either their Wisconsin Initial Educators License or to renew their Professional Educators License.
Currently, there are two online service providers of PDP software which include WECAN and QEI. However, as of June 2017, WECAN is discontinuing their online PDP services. Teachers who did not start their PDP with WECAN before October 1, 2016, must now go through QEI.
QEI offers several membership levels with Gold being the most expensive plan with the most benefits. In order to help WCRIS teachers create PDPs for a reasonable cost with the best benefits available, WCRIS negotiated with QEI for a significantly reduced rate of $12.50 per teacher for the Gold Membership level. A traditional Gold QEI Membership is $125. That’s a savings of $112.50 per teacher!
The Gold Membership Includes:
- One Teacher, Administrator, or IHE Representative on your team provided by the QEI
- Write and Store your PDP Online
- Member Support through Tutorials, FAQs, and Online Video
- Submit Required Data to DPI
- Online Personalized PDP Timeline
- Access to over 11,000 Copyright-Free Digital Images
- PDP Timeline Email Reminders
- Member Support – Email and Phone
- Develop and Share an Online Career Portfolio
- Access Member Support through 1-2-1 Remote Connect
- Priority Member Assistance
- Online PDP Writing Course
Administrators are eligible for this discount as well as teachers. Please forward this opportunity to your staff who will need to complete PDPs in order to be licensed/re-licensed. At this time, this offer has no expiration date and will continue to be available for principals and teachers who will need a PDP service provider in the future.
