NWEA designs professional development to fit within your staff development plans and within your preferred method of delivery. Flexible options include self-paced computer courses, facilitator led on-line training, recorded demonstrations, on-site direct training, “Building Local Expertise” models, support documents, and "turn-key" workshops ready for your delivery. In this session, we will walk through the many offerings available to you to support administrators, teachers, and staff in accessing, interpreting, and applying NWEA data to inform planning and decision-making. Come learn about ways to build flexibility into making “Real Data” meaningful for everyone in your district.
The “Showcase” Presentations
These sessions allow Seminar participants get a closer look at some of NWEA’s most recent offerings. The main elements of Dynamic Reporting Suite, Data Agent, MAP for Primary Grades, Science Assessments, and the Training Continuum are presented in a smaller setting which encourages participant interaction and time for Questions and Answers. Come and learn more about what these tools can offer your district in enriching and elevating the use of data to drive discussion, planning, professional development, and program implementation On-Site to On-Line: A wide array of staff development opportunities to meet your needs

4. NWEA Training Continuum HandoutStep 1 - MAP Administration
The first training in the continuum is designed for districts new to Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) assessments. This workshop is offered on-site, encouraging staff members to participate and learn about their roles in administering MAP tests and using assessment data.
Step 2 - Stepping Stones to Using Data
In the second workshop, attendees gain an understanding of the reports available after their first test season. This workshop provides an opportunity for staff members, including the District Leadership Team, to take a look at their data, learn to interpret data, and to develop a common vocabulary to facilitate communication.
Step 3 - Climbing the Data Ladder
In the third workshop, participants delve into applying the information districts glean from their reports. After developing the skills to understand and interpret data in the Stepping Stones to Using Data workshop, suggestions are offered for applying the data to inform classroom instructional practices.
Step 4 - Growth and Goals
In the fourth workshop, participants will focus on growth data to establish and evaluate goals. Teachers will begin to learn how to work with students to set growth targets and the District Leadership Team will gain a better understanding of the value of analyzing data over time to evaluate programs and instructional practices.
MAPping the Data Trail
This workshop supports the efforts of district and building leaders as they create a culture that uses data to improve learning. The focus is on supporting staff as they use data to guide instruction in the classroom and identifying strengths and areas of concern at grade, building, and district levels.
