MTDS Powerful Task Design continues the academy experience by offering the opportunity to continue your growth in a select area of study. TAG Cohort fellows will form small groups around special interest areas of study, to be led by graduates of the cohort program.
The year-long schedule will include cohort study group sessions, EducationPlus sponsored conferences and RPDC workshops. Ongoing support will be provided to all academy members through our online community, which will connect members from all academy levels.
MTDS Powerful Task Design is part of the Missouri Teacher Development System and is open to any teacher who has a strong desire for continuous professional improvement.
