Register now for one of our LIVE professional development opportunities! Our first-ever Author's Corner Speaker Series is happening Thursday. Eric Balchunas will discuss his book: The Bogle Effect and attendees will have a chance at winning one of 50 free copies being raffled off. If you're new to NGPF, we recommend our Beginner Series PDs. We're hosting two this week. Click and scroll to see what else we're offering in this week's virtual PD roundup. 

Why join our Virtual PDs? Here's what teachers are saying:

• "Honestly, these sessions have all been amazing! I have used so much due to the PDs!"!
• "Each time I join the sessions, I come away with new knowledge, insights, and ideas on how to use this information with my students."
• "I was so nervous at the start of this school year, but with the training and resources provided by NGPF I was able to be more confident in my teaching abilities.”
