Georgia College
Professional Learning Units for Teachers
Georgia College has partnered with Virtual Education Software, inc. to offer professional learning unit courses for K-12 educators online or via CD-Rom. These interactive continuing education courses provide expert instruction at a pace that fits your schedule.
In the state of Georgia, teachers are required to complete 10 PLUs (formerly SDUs) every five years in order to retain their teaching certificates. If you are currently teaching, you must complete a Prior Approval Form before you begin your course. Upon completion of your course you will receive a PLU Course Completion Form to attach to your renewal application when you are ready to renew your teaching certificate. If you are not currently teaching, keep a copy of your PLU Course Completion Form for your records.
TO REGISTER for one or more courses and to obtain a Prior Approval Form, please call the Department of Continuing Education at (478) 445-5277.
VESi recommends that you check with your school district and/or state licensing agency to verify these course offerings will meet your district and/or state requirements for salary advancement and/or state certificate re-licensure.
