District Specific Training
Often multiple tools are used to create district specific PD.
Have a PD need specific to your district? Create a Learning Path for that! Teachers even receive a certificate or digital badge upon completion of the path.
Pre-Built Courses
Creating and updating PD on popular edtech tools takes too much time and it is hard to be an expert in multiple tools.
Ready-Made PD in MobileMind can give you a jump start on the PD offered to your teachers! With PD from our partners like Google, Microsoft, Newline, Kami, Formative, AI tools, and more, you can use our ready-made PD to save yourself time and maximize impact!
Reporting & Tracking
It's hard to track who has completed what training as well as performance.
MobileMind allows leaders to view learner’s progress on live and virtual PD, in-district and beyond. Designated roles makes visibility into teachers’ progress a seamless experience.
Live PD
Scheduling and registration for live events is often in a separate system.
MobileMind provides a comprehensive scheduling a registration tool for single and group events like workshops and conferences.
New Hire Onboarding
There is no seamless way to prepare new teachers and staff on their grade level, compliance, district technology and more.
Streamline your district's entire new hire onboarding process, and integrate existing in-person new hire events in the same onboarding hub.
Feeling Overwhelmed
Between new teacher onboarding, edtech tools, compliance, and other PD activities, there are too many sources for learners to get their training. That leaves administrators maintaining all of those sources.
MobileMind consolidates all of a district’s professional development initiatives, from creation to completion, into one modern learning hub to streamline all of your PD efforts.
Resource Constraints
Educators' time is stretched thin. Having the time and personnel to create and even complete PD is a challenge, and substitutes are hard to hire for teacher PD days.
The professional learning hub makes the most out of mandated PD time allocation. Provide engaging micro-courses to make the most out of required PD hour caps. MobileMind can save districts over $40K on subs.
Digital Portfolio
Tracking learner accomplishments, credit hours, digital badges, certifications earned, etc. can be difficult.
The MobileMind Backpack allows teachers and staff a simple and engaging way to view progress over time. This digital portfolio tracks all professional learning in one place, and achievements are easily shareable and exportable.
Feedback
Delivering feedback to learners is extremely time consuming and consistency can be a challenge.
MobileMind’s automated grading and variety of acceptable submission types allows you to be more intentional when creating PD for your teachers and staff.
Digital Badging
Digital badge creation and tracking is typically done in a separate platform than where PD is being completed.
MobileMind learners earn digital badges and micro-credentials as they demonstrate competency of skills. Create your own badges in our integrated badge studio!
Engaging PD
PD is often “sit + get”, not engaging, not personalized, and there is no follow-up via asynchronous.
Create competency, activity based micro-courses for your busy educators who can complete your district specific PD anytime, anywhere.
Personalized Learning
Providing district-wide personalized training opportunities is almost impossible.
Deliver valuable professional learning specific to the needs of each of your learners. MobileMind allows PD creators the ability to build personalized and differentiated learning paths that fit the skill level of each learner.
Training Goals
It is difficult to assign and track training goals in the same place the training is completed.
Create goals around learning paths to keep teachers on pace when learning new skills.
Use Cases
Streamlined Training
Create, track, and report on all training that occurs in the district.
Live Events
Run scheduling and registration for live events in the same place your teachers access asynchronous PD.
Unified Approach
MobileMind allows district leaders to consolidate all PD into one intuitive, modern hub.
Compliance
Create, deliver, track, and report on all compliance training, including mandated reporting, using an EpiPen, FERPA/CIPA/COPPA, employee ethics / standards, athletics, safety policies and procedures, food service and transportation training.
STE(A)M Training
Streamline training on various initiatives to make sure everyone is prepared and on the same page. Leverage HQ to create PD around topics like STEM/STEAM, project based learning, social-emotional learning, backwards design, personalized learning, and differentiation.
1:1 Device Training
Educators can take the same relevant skills and knowledge they gained in the learning pathways into a face-to-face 1:1 device environment.
PLC & Data Teams
Create simple screencasts for your educators to watch collaboratively or independently to ensure data team and PLC success.
Communication
Communicate directly with the entire district or at individual schools with announcements, PD related and otherwise, on the MobileMind dashboard.
New Teacher & Staff Onboarding
Onboard new teachers and staff members using one exclusive hub that they can go back and reference at anytime.
Replace "Sit & Get" PD
Stop the “sit and get” drudgery during in-service days and get the most of your teachers' time without students in the classroom with asynchronous micro-courses.
Instructional Best Practice & Curriculum Training
Provide instruction best practice and curriculum training, including virtual engagement, digital citizenship, and curriculum training for all subjects.
Teacher Remediation
Create learning paths to further develop a teacher’s skills in areas such as, lesson planning, classroom management, student discipline, communicating with parents, and much more.
