Evaluator Training
IPA provides ISBE-required Administrator Academies for individuals to renew their teacher and/or principal evaluator designation. Earned evaluator designations appear on an Illinois educator's Professional Educator License (PEL).
Renewing the Principal Evaluation Designation
Requirements
- Evaluator Training and Retraining for Principals and Assistant Principals (AA #4050) - two-day face-to-face training. It is anticipated that on or before July 1, 2029, a new course(s) may be developed to replace AA #4050 for retraining purposes only.
Timeline
- Must be taken in the subsequent licensure cycles following the cycle in which the initial principal evaluator designation was earned.
Principal Jones earned his initial principal evaluator designation on July 15, 2020 (his licensure cycle was July 1, 2016-June 30, 2021). Principal Jones must complete AA #4050 before the end of his current cycle (July 1, 2021-June 30, 2026).
