Microsoft is partnering with the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards to provide technology training to National Board-certified teachers.
Microsoft will provide the tools and professional development training to help the teachers integrate Microsoft technologies into their work. This partnership includes online and in-person training, entry into the Microsoft Innovative Educator (MIE) program and certificates of learning.
This partnership builds on Microsoft’s existing support for President Barack Obama’s ConnectED initiative with an offer that provides affordable Windows 8 devices to schools across the nation.
Check out the Microsoft in Education blog to find out more about this partnership and what it offers to these teachers.
