Earn PLU's with smART stART !

Young Audiences, Woodruff Arts Center is proud to announce we are now a vendor for Professional Learning Units! Many smART stART programs have begun , but the opportunity is still available for those participating teachers who would like to acquire 1 PLU (10 hours) toward their certification. The Georgia Department of Education is on a 5 year “pause” which does not require PLU’s for recertification. Once the five years are complete, Professional Learning Units will, once again, be needed to maintain certification. This is a great opportunity to earn credit for a PLU that may be needed in the future. Lastly, Young Audiences, Woodruff Arts Center will keep records of completion if documentation is needed in the future.
