Bulletin board

eFolio
eFolio is a multimedia electronic portfolio, free for all Minnesota residents, including students enrolled in Minnesota schools. The portfolio is easy to use and can incorporate text, PowerPoint presentations, photos, audio and digital video. It also has privacy features so that some materials are password protected.
Beginning this fall, the portfolio seminar introduces students to eFolio in preparation for review panels.

For more information or to start your own eFolio go to:

Financial aid
If you have completed a bachelor's degree and are admitted to a master's or doctoral degree program or a post-baccalaureate certificate program, or you need to register for graduate credit for other reasons, refer to Paying for Your Education: Resources for Adult Learners [.pdf].

Panelists needed
All licensure students are required to be assessed by a panel prior to their endorsement for licenses in administration. The panel must consist of members representing the University and currently licensed and practicing or recently retired administrators from the metropolitan or greater Minnesota community.

Serving as a panelist requires a few hours of time in a single visit. As a panelist, your role is to listen actively, ask questions, debrief with other members, and determine if the candidate has met the required competencies. A University administrator will lead the process.

For their time, panelists receive CEU hours as well as mileage and parking reimbursement. Please share your knowledge and expertise with an aspiring administrator by serving on their panel. For more information, contact Dr. Lynn Scearcy.
