Webinars

Each school year, OBEWL offers monthly after-school webinars on topic related to high-leverage teaching practices and guidance for planning, instruction, and assessment.  These one-hour webinars are offered from 4-5pm via Zoom.  To register for these webinars, educators must have a valid email from a NYS educational institution.  The presentation portion of the webinar is recorded and the recording made available on the webinar's page for on-demand viewing.  Educators attend the webinars live or can watch the recordings and then attempt to earn a certificate for doing so by taking an online post assessment on the webinar and scoring at least a 7 out of 10.
