Illinois ASBO is partnering with the Illinois Principals Association (IPA) to deliver online professional development! Stay relevant and keep up your license through a selection of convenient online academies, specifically identified as relevant to school business professionals.


Online academies offer the opportunity to get administrator academy credit without having to leave the district. Lasting 4 hours in the morning, plus additional pre- and post-academy work, IPA’s online academies gives busy administrators a great way to get their annual administrator academy credit. The academies will include pre-and post homework, so watch your registration for additional details.


Difficult conversations are unpleasant, but they don’t have to be unproductive. Veteran administrator Don Anderson gives techniques on how to make sure difficult conversations yield positive results for everyone involved. The online version of this academy runs for 4 hours (8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.). Participation in this academy, which is delivered via Zoom, is interactive and requires registrants to use their web cameras and microphones during the workshop.


IPA will deliver this ONLINE training through Zoom. To participate in the virtual workshop, you must have Internet access, a web camera, and a microphone.


You will receive the Zoom training link, handouts and detailed instructions in the registration confirmation from netforum@ilprincipals.org. If you don’t see the confirmation in your inbox after registering, please check your junk or spam folder.
