The ECISD Professional Development Department works to provide training opportunities that support district and campus improvement plans for administrators, teachers, and paraprofessionals. We collaborate with all departments (Curriculum, Special Education, Bilingual, Advanced Academic Services, etc) to ensure Professional Development opportunities are aligned by content and time.
