Requirements
- Evaluator Training and Retraining for Principals and Assistant Principals (AA #4050) - two-day face-to-face training.

In addition to the required AA #4050 for initial principal designation training and retraining, IPA offers AA #3967, a one-day administrator academy for individuals seeking an overview of the evaluation plan. This course is particularly helpful for individuals who will be evaluated under the plan. This course, School Leader Evaluation: A Growth-Focused Approach, is particularly helpful for individuals who will be evaluated under the plan.
