The Tennessee Department of Disability and Aging has announced the launch of the Academic and Behavioral Learning Certificate Program for Tennessee Teachers (ABLC), in partnership with Trevecca Nazarene University.
The ABLC program is aimed at equipping Tennessee’s teachers with the knowledge and tools necessary to better serve students with intellectual and developmental disabilities. This 12-week program will be offered to all licensed Tennessee teachers at no cost and will provide 90 professional development (PD) hours upon completion.
Through a series of training modules, the ABLC program will teach educators best practices for creating inclusive, supportive classroom environments that promote success for all students.
