The Professional Learning Bulletin Board
The Professional Learning Bulletin Board (PLBB) is a resource for Kentucky educators to explore a wide range of professional development opportunities. Featuring sessions from the Kentucky Department of Education and various learning providers, the platform offers both asynchronous and in-person options tailored to educators' interests and growth areas. Regularly updated and often free, PLBB allows users to filter content to meet their needs.
Please note, however, per KRS 156.095 (8), “posting information on the bulletin board by the department shall not be viewed as an endorsement of the quality of any specific provider or program.” Please work with your district or principal to determine if these hours are eligible for professional development credit.
For more information regarding professional learning, please visit KDE's professional learning webpage. You also can email Laura McCullough or call (502) 892-6637, ext. 4149.
