About our professional development credit program

It's easy for teachers to earn professional development credit while leading a class trip. Our course provides a formal structure for educators to document the work that goes into leading a tour and providing students with valuable learning experiences outside the classroom. This program also provides educators with a way to quantify the knowledge and experience they have gained on tour and to help bring that knowledge of the world to their students.

Coursework includes completing a reading assignment and pre-tour overview before your trip, keeping a travel journal on tour and preparing and sharing a curriculum unit with your administrators along with a summary essay of your experience. The time required is approximately 60 hours and you can earn two Continuing Education Units (CEUs) or Professional Development Points.
