EzPD Management Overview
EzPD is a comprehensive professional development management application, equipping K-12 districts with the ability to plan, track, manage, and report on professional development activities and programs. This fully web-based application automates the entire professional development process from class creation, scheduling, enrollment, payment, attendance and evaluations to issuance of paperless CEU/PDP awards and transcripts. As a hosted web portal, the site is available anywhere, anytime the user has an internet connection, making it easy and quick for every member of your administrative team and teaching staff to securely access their professional development records. EzPD addresses the challenges of data management and reporting for the administrative staff in a typical school central office where massive amounts of information about professional development offerings, instructors, schedules, and participation flow between buildings and employees. As a comprehensive online tool, EzPD eliminates the need for paper-based tracking processes. Administrators can access a single source for planning, approving, evaluating and reporting on professional development programs. Teachers can access their staff profile and build Individual Professional Development Plans, and maintain compliance with re-certification requirements. EzPD also includes online enrollment and course evaluation options for total ease of use.
