NSTA 2012 <strong>Atlanta</strong> Area <strong>Conference</strong><br />

Professional Development Documentation Form<br />

All attendees can evaluate concurrent teacher and exhibitor sessions online while simultaneously tracking professional development<br />

certification (based on clock hours). Use this form to keep track of all sessions/events attended during the <strong>Atlanta</strong><br />

conference. Sessions/events such as field trips, short courses, meetings, and exhibit hall visits are not available for online<br />

evaluation. However, these events still qualify for professional development.<br />

Beginning November 27, 2012, <strong>Atlanta</strong> transcripts can be accessed at the NSTA Learning Center (learning<br />

center.nsta.org) by logging on with your <strong>Atlanta</strong> Badge ID# and then clicking on “My PD Record and Certificates.” Keep<br />

this form and use it to add the following activities to your <strong>Atlanta</strong> transcript. Completed transcripts can be printed from this<br />

website and presented to an administrator who requires documentation of participation in the conference. All information<br />

in these transcripts will be maintained (and can be accessed) indefinitely as part of an attendee’s individual profile.<br />
