CALENDAR
OF DEPARTMENT-SPONSORED EVENTS
(Updated 11/19/09)

|
|
|
|
|

This calendar notes
only those events sponsored by the department. An event is considered department-sponsored
if it is planned and run solely by the department or if the department plays a significant
role in coordinating the event programmatically or financially with a partner organization.
At this time, events must be submitted by department staff.
The department's calendar
of events is designed to be used as a planning tool by department staff, State Board
members and educators in the field. The calendar lists department-sponsored events,
which, unless noted otherwise, are intended to benefit service providers, educators
and administrators.
This page will be updated as items are received. View
events for the upcoming six month period:

Vermont Higher Education Collaborative (VTHEC)
The VTHEC was formed in 2000 as part of Act 117. It is the joint work of the Vermont Department of Education, the Vermont State Colleges and the University of Vermont. The VT-HEC, along with Vermont school districts and other education related organizations, are working together in new ways to make quality preparation, development and support programs accessible to educators and educators-to-be in all parts of the state. The VT HEC has a goal of creating a network of quality graduate programs that may lead to certificates, endorsements and/or degrees in areas of high need using a variety of delivery models. In addition, the VTHEC is also committed to creating mentoring and induction programs with its partners to ensure a highly effective workforce in education and human service organizations.
