These courses are designed to help teachers of middle level learners meet specific content learning standards. The courses may be offered in workshop or web-enhanced environments in which teachers may elect to earn graduate credit-bearing hours or Credit for Professional Development Units (CPDUs) needed for the re-certification process. These courses may be offered in variable credit based on the ratio in which 1 graduate credit hour equals 15 CPDUs. Each course may be repeated under different module (section) numbers that correlate to specific content learning standards up to the equivalent of 12 graduate credit bearing hours or 180 CPDUs. For example -- MIDS 412 A (412.01), 412 B (412.02), 412 C (412.03), etc. would meet the Illinois Learning Standards 12A, 12B, 12C, etc.; respectively. A teacher who completes a whole sequence of section modules will have met all the standards needed to reach highly qualified re-certification credentialing criteria.
