What are the course activities? Participants are required to complete a variety of tasks and submit work products within the online courses for feedback. These products include, but are not limited to, video recordings of lessons, written and video recorded reflections, student surveys, classroom projects, self-assessments, and growth goals.
How are assignments graded? Assignments are graded using a binary grading style (accepted or not accepted). For tasks that are not accepted, feedback will be provided and assignments may be re-submitted with corrections.
Who grades the coursework? Certification reviewers are current or retired practitioners who have proven success in improving instruction, and are Marzano Resources professional development associates. Associates have a master’s degree or doctorate degree in educational leadership, teaching, or a related area; three or more years of experience in a school leadership position; presentation experience at the district level and beyond; and an in-depth understanding of Marzano Resources’ work.
What happens after successfully completing a course? Once participants successfully complete a level, they receive a certificate from Marzano Resources and recognition on the Marzano Resources HRT certification webpage. HRT certification never expires, and teachers may carry the HRT credentials with them if they move to a different district. CEU and college-level credit may also be available.
How long do I have to complete a course? Participants are given 12 months to complete each course.
