PROFESSIONAL LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT

Riverside County SELPA is committed to providing Professional Learning opportunities that meet the unique needs of each of our member Local Education Agencies (LEAs). We strive to hold SELPA wide Professional Learning events, as well as, sessions designed specifically for each LEA.

We are pleased to share our 2025–2026 Professional Development Guide, which includes a detailed breakdown of our PD process and offerings for the upcoming school year. See upcoming opportunities below or click on our Calendar tab at the top of the website for event and registration information.   

Riverside County SELPA Vision for Staff Development:

  • Provide a comprehensive plan of staff development for educators and families based on best practices in special education.
  • Plan a yearly calendar of trainings and distribute to member LEAs.
  • Effectively disseminate information regarding staff development opportunities throughout the county.
  • Train district representatives who will return to their LEAs to train others.
  • Collaborate with other agencies to provide staff development throughout the county.
