Overview

Join this session to learn about and access the helpful resources within the newly released Integrated Education and Training (IET) Design Toolkit. With this toolkit, you can improve your current MassSTEP program or plan and begin a new MassSTEP program. The toolkit is organized into four main sections and is intended to guide individuals or teams through the process of assessing, planning, implementing, and evaluating. New and experienced MassSTEP staff can benefit from the toolkit, which will introduce participants to the whole toolkit and focus on the content and tools in phase 1.

    This professional development activity/course is designed for:

  • New and experienced MassSTEP directors, coordinators, instructors, and advisors who want to be more strategic in planning and implementing MassSTEP programming and curriculum
Description

Do you want to know more about the on-demand resources and support you can access to build and implement a MassSTEP program? Join this session to get up to date with the Integrated Education and Training Design Toolkit. The toolkit guides teams or individuals through the planning process for identifying, designing, and implementing an IET / IELCE program that incorporates learner and employer needs. The toolkit is organized into four sections to reflect the iterative phases of planning and implementation: Research and Assess, Design and Plan, Develop and Implement, and Evaluate and Improve.

This session is open and appropriate for new, experienced, and prospective MassSTEP directors, coordinators, teachers, and advisors. Ideally, teams will complete and review the materials together in sequential order. Individuals can draw inspiration, ideas, and guidance from any section of the toolkit at any time and can benefit from the linked supporting resources in the appendix.

This session will introduce additional on-demand national trainings and supportive resources for IET / IELCE programs that MassSTEP staff can access anytime.
