Submit a Proposal for an AASL Professional Development Opportunity

Presenting professional development for your national professional association offers numerous benefits – for you and the profession. It establishes you as a thought leader and expands your professional network, connecting you with peers nationwide, potential collaborators, and other education leaders.

Engaging in professional development presentations strengthens your communication and leadership skills, making you a more effective educator. Additionally, it allows you to stay ahead of industry trends as you research and prepare content, ensuring your knowledge remains current and relevant.

Beyond personal growth, presenting professional development for AASL also shapes the future of the profession by guiding discussions, setting best practices, and inspiring other school librarians to develop their skills.

Proposals for AASL professional development can include, but are not limited to: online courses, webinars that are 30-60 minutes in length, and other online learning options (podcasts, mobile learning, etc.).
