Teacher Institute will provide you a schedule of events and certification as proof of your participation in the program. Be sure to check with your local school district for its requirements to receive professional development credit (continuing education credit, clock hours, professional development hours, etc.). If additional paperwork is required (if Colonial Williamsburg needs to submit paperwork to be an approved provider in your district or state), please contact us 60 days prior to your arrival to confirm what efforts need to be done. We cannot guarantee your school district will accept your time spent in Williamsburg if you contact them after you have attended.
