Welcome to the website of Learning Forward Mississippi, formerly known as the Mississippi Staff Development Council, an organization committed to the principle that effective professional learning for all educators is the key to improving student learning. Effective professional learning is driven by data about student and educator needs, is results oriented, and is embedded in the daily work of each educator. As an affiliate of Learning Forward, formerly known as National Staff Development Council, Learning Forward Mississippi supports the Learning Forward purpose, definition of professional learning, and standards for staff development. We invite you to explore this site and to join us in our quest for effective professional learning for all educators in Mississippi.
Our Belief Every educator engages in effective professional learning
every day so every student achieves.
