I am a NYC teacher, why must I register with ASPDP first?

All NYC teachers looking for P Credit for their 30 and above, must first register with ASPDP. ASPDP is in charge of the courses you are able to take for your salary advancement and not all our classes may be approved by them to take for P Credit. Also, if you are having trouble registering for a course with ASPDP, make sure you are not trying to go over your 12 credit limit per semester. NYC teachers can not take more than 12 credit per semester. Go to https://pci.nycenet.edu/aspdp/Account/Login for more information or email ASPDP with specific questions at aspdp@schools.nyc.gov

How do I get CTLE hours for the course I have completed?

The new 100-hour CTLE requirement officially begins on July 1, 2016 for holders of professional certificates in the Classroom Teaching and Educational Leadership Service and Level III teaching assistants.

As you may know LILIE is now an approved sponsor of CTLE as of July 2016. All electronic certificates through LILIE, ESBOCES, Nassau BOCES and ASPDP are also proof of your CTLE hours (Each class is 45 CTLE hours). You no longer need a separate form to fill out for proof of CTLE hours.

What is the deadline to register for a course?

If you are a NYC teacher and earning p-credits for successful completion of a course, you must register with ASPDP before the course begins otherwise they will not allow you to take the course. After registering with ASPDP, you will be given directions to then register on our website. It is imperative you first register with ASPDP to ensure the course is available. ASPDP will not back register participants nor allow enrollment into any course after it begins. You must confirm the ASPDP final registration due date for the course(s) you wish to register for.
