LHRIC Learning Pathways are professional development opportunities organized into focused levels to help you build valuable skills, knowledge, and expertise to drive student success. Each Pathway consists of different levels that create a strong foundation of learning, progressing toward mastery.
Teachers and administrators now have the opportunity to earn a shareable digital badge upon the completion of each level. Celebrate your professional growth and showcase your new skills as you build your digital portfolio!

Learning pathways are not meant to be strictly followed from start to finish. Rather, they provide participants with a flexible roadmap to help inform their choices over time, pace and place of learning.
Research shows that for certain types of learning, "stand-alone" workshops and sessions can be highly effective tools for professional development. However, when it comes to building sustainable capacity in schools in ways that can dramatically impact student outcomes, we believe these pathways provide a "bridge to practice" beyond traditional courses.
Once you have successfully completed all courses in a level, you can request your completion badge through this Form. You will receive a digital badge icon and a certificate that can be used as part of your professional portfolio. Each badge earned ensures the acquisition of a specific skill set that advocates for a holistic, human-centered approach to AI literacy.
No! For those interested in earning badges, levels are not meant to be strictly followed from start to finish. Rather, they provide participants with a flexible roadmap to help inform their choices over time, pace and place of learning.
Once you complete all courses in a particular level and your attendance is marked "complete", a course registrar will provide a digital badge and certificate that you can use as part of a professional portfolio, social media profile, and/or email signature. The certificate will celebrate all the skills you have achieved for each badge level earned.
We will be developing pathways that align with and support district technology plan goals. Learning pathways will support the topics and issues that impact our districts regionally, and content will be regularly reviewed and refreshed to ensure up to date and accurate content.
Although individuals may register for any of the pathways at will, we encourage teams within districts to spread the learning and form their own communities of practice. District instructional technology coaches and professional developers can sample content from across multiple pathways and design their own customized coaching toolkit to share with colleagues. Teachers can use pathways to support individual professional learning goals for the year, and administrators can use pathways as part of a district professional development strategy.
