Background:
Recently revised rules for Step Up To Quality (SUTQ) made changes to the professional development standards.
New Policy:
The JFS 01596 "Staff Worksheet for Step Up To Quality (SUTQ)" has been revised to add two new courses required for professional development. Ohio's Approach to Quality and Ohio's Overview of Child Development have been added to the form since administrators, lead teachers and assistant teachers are required to complete these courses. The new layout aligns with system-based reports administrators use with the Ohio Professional Registry.
