CERTIFICATION
While all professional development material is free-of-charge, certification indicating completion will be available to teachers for a fee. This fee will vary depending on the producer of the content and the location of the teacher accessing the material. While in the future, analytic data will be used to help content producers set the rates for certification, initial estimates for course certification (based on the cost of certification for MOOCs and other online professional development programs) range between $39 and $89 per course. PRO-T will receive 30% of the certification fee (based on the industry standard for internet marketplaces), with the content developer receiving the remainder.
VOLUME PURCHASING
For schools and districts at the regional, state or national levels, volume discounts are given based on the number of teachers to be certified. In addition, administrators are able to choose the certification material, send it to the teacher's profile, and receive confirmation when the material has been completed. The fee structure is as follows:
- 10 to 100 teachers: 5% discount
- 100 to 1000 teachers: 10% discount
- Over 1000 teachers: 20% discount
RECRUITMENT
With PRO-T's recruitment account, recruiting agencies and school boards can view public teacher or administrator profiles in order to fill vacancies with candidates that possess the necessary qualifications. If a candidate is found that matches the need of the recruiter, they can contact the teacher through the PRO-T platform for a fee [payment is only charged once it has been verified that the candidate has received the message]. The fee schedule is listed below*:
