Records of PL Achievement
Educators are responsible for maintaining professional learning records for teacher registration compliance. See TRBWA website.
Evidence of PL attendance and/or completion of courses can be gathered in various ways, such as keeping copies of PL event and course registration details.
AISWA now also offers more formalised accreditation services - Highly Accomplished and Lead Teacher (HALT) Accreditation and Credly Badged Courses. Please see below for details.
Credly Badging Program (Micro-credentialing options)
AISWA offers digital badges for certain PL courses, particularly AISWA Online Learning courses. We use the Credly platform to manage the badges accredited by AISWA, according to tiers of time and expertise required. See the specific information below.
AISWA will email AISWA Online Learning (AOL) course participants the Digital Badge opt-in form at the end of each Semester.
For questions or further information about AISWA Badging, please contact onlinelearning@ais.wa.edu.au.
Current participants in the program can access their digital badges here.
