Technology Integration Coach Program

The Alabama Technology Integration Coach Certification Program is a year-long program delivered in a blend of face-to-face and online environments. The coursework is based on the ISTE Standards for Coaches, and participants complete a showcase product throughout the program.

 

A successful candidate for the ALTIC Certification Program should currently serve as a technology coach for a school or school system. The ALET Certification Program Committee will review all applications and select candidates. Each cohort of the ALTIC program will accept a maximum of fifteen (15) participants.

The fee for the Alabama Technology Integration Coach Certification Program is $50. Participants are responsible for paying for their own travel, lodging, and meals. You will be sent an invoice by email prior to the start of the first course, which must be paid prior to the start of the first course. As each system has individual policies on certification programs, check with your CSFO to determine if your system can cover the cost.

 

Typically, the face-to-face coursework runs in conjunction with ALET’s Fall conference, held annually in Orange Beach. Participants must attend this face-to-face coursework with the cohort to which they are assigned. This group will work collaboratively to create a professional network of peers. The remaining coursework is covered in an online environment. During the year-long program, cohort members will be given the opportunity to visit fellow coaches. Additionally, monthly conversations occur in a variety of ways. Detailed information will be provided to accepted cohort members.
