Teacher Center FAQs

Granting credit for center offerings is a matter for a district to determine. It is important that you check your district’s policy in regards to credit. Obtaining prior approval for credit is the participant’s responsibility. Appearance of an offering in the MHTC catalogue does not indicate prior local district approval for credit.
Workshop, modular series, and conference fees are non-refundable once an offering has been contracted with a consultant unless the offering is cancelled.

Teacher Center Funding

Much of the funding comes from the state in the form of a competitive grant, but it is not the intent for state monies to fully fund a given teacher center. Many in-kind services from the districts will contribute to the program's success and stability. The district can provide money, space, phone, custodial and/or secretarial support, and administrative assistance. Teachers are sometimes charged nominal fees for the various in-services and workshops. Donations of money, equipment or consultants fees can come from the business community, the PTA, etc.
