Go Ahead, Become A “Certified Educator”

My workgroup encourages teachers in our district to become certified in educational technology tools that our district purchases.  We encourage certification in Nearpod, NewsELA, ThingLink, FlipGrid, BrainPop.  In fact, we have paid them to be certified in June after school is over – and we want to add more options – we feel that strongly about it!

Many of the teachers in our district are “Certified” or “Brand Ambassadors.”  We work with teachers who collect certifications and are brand ambassadors for products that they heavily use and/or just love.  So I was taken aback to see a tweet about #edtech brand ambassadors:
