The 2016 – 17 Global-Ready School and Global-Ready District Applications and Guidance are available on the DPI website. District applications are due by Dec. 2, and the school applications are due by April 4, 2017.

 

If interested in applying for the designations, please complete the “Intent to Apply.” This ensures that interested applicants receive resources and updates to assist them through the application process. Both forms are available on the NC Global Education website.

Global Educator Digital Badge Reminders

Please note that teachers and administrators pursuing their Global Educator Digital Badge (GEDB) must turn in their Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) to NCDPI. Once the MOA is received, the GEDB candidate will have access to the online management platform where they may access resources and any additional forms or information to assist them through the process.

 

The MOA, Implementation Guide, April 2016 Webinar and other resources can be found on the NC Global Education website.

Global Education Professional Development Workshops

The Department of Public instruction, in partnership with three of the Regional Education Service Alliances (RESAs), will be offering two Global Education Professional Development Workshops this summer.

 

The Global Educator Digital Badge Capstone Project Workshop is for educators enrolled in the process of attaining the digital badge and also for school and district personnel leading the local evaluation of these projects before submission for state level review.

 

The Global-Ready School and/or Global-Ready District Applicant Workshop is for those intending to submit or exploring submission of an application to NCDPI.

 

Space is limited and registration deadlines for each site are one week before the workshop. For more information and registration please click here.
