Professional Development for Galileo Users

The start of the new school year is always a busy time for ATI’s Professional Development Specialists. We spend many hours on the road working with districts and charter schools to help them prepare for implementing their first Galileo assessment. Once the first assessment of the year is successfully administered, it is time to train staff on how to utilize Galileo’s other components and tools. Many school districts and charter schools ask ATI’s Professional Development Specialist to come out and deliver follow-up, on-site training on:

• Generating reports and using Galileo data
• Galileo curriculum tools
• Administering Technology Enhanced items
• Building formative assessments
• Implementing interventions

If arranging an on-site professional development session is not an option for you this year, ATI’s Professional Development Specialists host complimentary professional development Learning On-Demand sessions throughout the year. For the fall Learning On-Demand schedule, click here.
