Professional Development Follow-up Support Toolkit
Follow-up support for professional development is a targeted strategy or set of strategies that is provided after a learning event. Follow-up support reinforces information or skills that were already introduced during the training. It should help participants cement what they have learned, remind them to practice the skills they learned during the training, and give them an opportunity to ask questions. Follow-up support should not introduce new knowledge or skills. The follow up support webinar will:
- Explain what follow-up support means
- Describe the three phases of follow-up support
- Identify the resources in the Follow-up Support Toolkit
- Use the resources in the Follow-up Support Toolkit to ensure the transfer of knowledge and skills learned
This toolkit provides information and resources for follow-up support after the completion of a professional development event. The toolkit includes worksheets that can be used to facilitate the follow-up process.
