To ensure the paraprofessionals know, understand, and can effectively apply Georgia’s Code of Ethics for Educators to their daily practice, the Paraprofessional Ethics Modules were developed by Georgia’s RESAs in collaboration with the GaPSC. The enhanced learning gained by paraprofessionals who participate in the training will help protect them, their colleagues, schools, systems, community, and most importantly their students, by increasing professional and ethical practices and school safety. Some RESAs are using the modules as self-directed; however, upon review, district and/or school leaders may want to facilitate the sessions since there are facilitators' guides available. Some are self-directed, but several do not appear to be self-directed.
After registering, district/school leaders will receive links to the facilitators' guides, PowerPoints, and/or videos for the 10 standards.
