Professional Development that Counts: Earning CPE Credits with Dual Language PD
Supporting Your Bilingual Teachers While Meeting Certification Requirements
District and campus leaders across Texas understand the critical role professional development (PD) plays in ensuring teachers are prepared to meet the diverse needs of emergent bilingual students. But with competing demands on teachers’ time, how can we ensure that PD is meaningful, aligned with best practices in dual language education, and supports teachers in maintaining their certification requirements?
At Palafox Education, LLC, we believe in professional development that counts.
As a TEA-approved Continuing Professional Education (CPE) Provider, we offer customized, evidence-based workshops for bilingual and dual language educators—and teachers earn CPE credits for all sessions, complete with a certificate to support their certification renewal.
Why Prioritize CPE-Aligned PD for Your Dual Language Teachers?
1️⃣ Meet State Certification Requirements While Building Capacity
Texas teachers need CPE credits for certification renewal, and bilingual/dual language educators often seek sessions aligned with their unique classroom needs. Our workshops ensure your team earns CPE credits while building practical strategies in:
Dual language program implementation
Spanish foundational literacy and lectoescritura
Content-based language instruction
Sociocultural competence and culturally responsive practices
2️⃣ Practical, Research-Based Strategies
All sessions are rooted in the latest research on bilingualism, biliteracy, and language acquisition, ensuring your teachers leave with strategies they can apply immediately to support emergent bilinguals.
