Iowa’s AEAs are continuing to strengthen and streamline how we deliver professional learning across the state. As part of our systemwide effort to work more cohesively, several responsibilities related to professional learning that were previously managed separately within individual AEAs will now be coordinated centrally through a single statewide professional learning team.
All AEAs will continue offering professional learning in every modality (in person, in‑district, virtual, blended, and online) but the way staff and educators access these offerings will change. Beginning this fall, course registration, setup, and attendance tracking will move into one statewide location: an updated and refreshed AEA Learning Online platform.
Beginning in August, the AEA system will sunset its current professional learning registration system (escWorks) and shift all professional learning registration to a refreshed version of our existing AEA Learning Online platform. This one‑stop environment ensures educators have a single record of completion for all learning statewide and a more intuitive experience when searching for and registering for courses. We appreciate your flexibility and professionalism as we transition to this new model.
