Learning Pathways

Learning Pathways are located within INFOhio Campus and provide options for self-paced or trainer led professional development with the opportunity to earn contact hours. Each pathway is made of classes targeting a specific educational topic or group with specific technical and instructional training related to the digital content and web tools INFOhio provides. Classes within each pathway can be viewed at any time, completed in any order, and offer the flexibility of increasing your professional knowledge collectively within the class or as resource to visit when a question arises. The About section contains information about the classes, a syllabus, and trainer guides for each class. Trainer materials for each class can be used to guide your own professional development. Digital badging is available for those who complete the entire pathway.
