LPDC

LPDCs were created by ORC 3319.22 to review coursework and professional development activities completed by educators to determine if state certification and licensure requirements have been met. The Department publishes a variety of resources to assist in setting up and engaging in the work of an LPDC.
The primary responsibility of the Local Professional Development Committee (LPDC) is to review educators’ Individual Professional Development Plans (IPDPs) and ensure that the identified goals and strategies are relevant to the needs of the district, the school, the students and the educator.
