The Professional Learning Portal (PLP) offers learners and educators a platform to access courses tailored to their professional development requirements. Various learners, such as certified Michigan teachers aiming to obtain SCECH credits, MiRegistry users seeking CEUs, and the general public interested in enhancing personal or professional skills, can benefit from the courses offered within the PLP. The cost for individual courses is always provided and can vary from free to approximately $200, catering to a diverse range of learners and their budgetary preferences.
The PLP catalog is accessible to users whether they are logged into the platform or not. If a learner has not created an account, they can visit plp.michiganvirtual.org to explore the catalog. However, to enroll in courses, learners must first create an account. Some learners, depending on their specific needs, may be required to provide additional information from other web-based platforms:
- Certified Michigan Teachers: Teachers renewing their certification through MOECS must include their Personal Identification Code (PIC) in their PLP profile. This ensures accurate recording of learner records for certification renewal purposes.
See SCHECH Frequently Asked Questions» - Early Childhood Education Professionals: Professionals in early childhood education and out-of-school time settings can update their PLP profile to automatically transfer course completion data to their MiRegistry account for obtaining CEUs. To participate, learners need to include their Registry ID in their PLP profile.
