Bill,
While not etched in tablets of stone, here is the ISBE Official Manual
for claiming CPDU's
http://isbe.net/certification/pdf/CPDU_option.pdf (scroll
to the end for all the options and evidence needed)
Their base certification website does have some good information and
resources.
http://isbe.net/certification/
Remember that you will need to generate some Prof Development in Special
Ed - serving all learners, but that is usually easy to address when you
look at the adaptations and have discussions of those (I try to weave
that into any training I do for the participants)
Perhaps the hand of MD will weigh in eventually. I know the whole
certification issue does weigh heavily on the Regional Supts.

If anyone understands the hacking request I should have known it would
be you. Exactly the syntax and parameters I was looking for. I know
just this week I have in-serviced my assistant, a productive kind and
very intelligent fellow only lacking in experience, in the more advanced
configs of Dansguardian, the monolithic co-opting of DNS by AD, that
apt-get has been deprecated in favor of aptitude in Debian, and POP vs
IMAP but it is only Wednesday morning. Of course we had Monday off so
we have not done to much yet.
Exactly what I needed as usual Terry!
Thank you very much. Now I can hack this!

Bill,
You can generate CPDUs by presenting - even in house. The first time
you present on a topic (ed curriculum related) you can claim 8 CPDUs,
for repeats of the SAME SESSION you can claim 3 CPDUs. A new
topic/session is again another 8 CPDUs. Keep a program listing your
name and topic for evidence.
You can generate CPDUs by being on committees. Read the rules but if
you meet 5 times a year or 8 times a year (etc) you earn X CPDUs. Keep
the agenda for evidence
You can do Action Research to generate CPDUs; You can publish an article
to generate CPDUs.
There are many options other than seat time in a session by someone
else.
All that said - I have the Opposite issue from you. I did all my
paperwork and documented everything and then when I tried to Certify my
CPDUs for the ROE it would not let me . I checked with the ROE and they
said I was not eligible to claim CPDUs because I had to be "EXEMPT"
I have a Type 09 and I pay TRS. I tried to argue but got no where. I
even do some independent student students and give grades ... but my ROE
says I have to be EXEMPT.
I guess it comes down to local control at the ROE and what they want to
do. My personal panic is one day I try to claim TRS retirement and they
tell me I still owe them 10 years because I was not an Active TRS
member. Enough rant but I was ticked when they would not let me certify
my certificate with the CPDUs I had.

forthe Autodidact
I am approaching a deadline for Continuing Ed and have very little to
show for the last five years. My Supt. does not believe in ITEC or
anything that takes me out of town during school hours so I cannot get
any formal credits without college night classes. However like all TGs
I am an autodidact.Just this month I spent about a day learning Big Blue
Button, a FLOSS GoToMeeting/GoToAssist and will be rolling out this
great new service any day now. I would have trouble fitting all of the
things I have taught myself over the last five years on five single
spaced pages but I have almost nothing formal I am turned down when I
try to attend a Feast or anything of the kind.
Is there any legal way for an autodidact to turn the continuing ed we
must do ourselves to keep an ever expanding network current into ISBE
recognized continuing ed?
How do you good and clever folks fill out your ISBE continuing ed
requirements?
Thanks Gang!
