he Adventist Learning Community is committed to supporting educators and educational leaders in their professional growth journey. In this issue, we are pleased to announce both a new course update and a significant enhancement to the ALC platform: a streamlined CEU submission process that now allows you to report multiple CEU activities in one form.

An update to the School Board Training course has been launched! This self-paced course was developed in collaboration with experienced superintendents and educational leaders to provide practical, actionable guidance for effective school governance. This update covers essential topics including the purpose and mission of Adventist education, organizational governance structure, the board's specific roles and responsibilities, member orientation, ethical considerations, and effective meeting management.

Multiple CEUs Submission

Instead of submitting your continuing education units one by one, you can now upload multiple CEUs through a single form—saving you valuable time and reducing administrative burden.

How It Works:

  1. Log into your ALC account using your AE Dashboard email and password.
  2. Navigate to the ALC dashboard and click on "My CEU Requests".
  3. Click on the “New CEU Request” button.
  4. Add your first professional development activity.
  5. If you have another activity to report, click on the “+” and add the next activity.
  6. Scroll to the bottom of the page. You can “save as draft” and return to this form the next time you need to add an activity. Simply resume editing in your CEU Request tab.
  7. When all your activities are added, submit the form to your conference by clicking submit! The system will process each CEU separately in the background and add up the total value.

If you have any questions about the new multiple CEUs submission feature or any other ALC related question, please reach out to Paola Oudri at paolaoudri@nadadventist.org.
