- Reduced and simpler orientation requirements for new teachers and principals.
- Self-review as evidence options.
- Combined student learning objective and professional practice goal option.
- Reduced time to complete calibration.
New EE tools include:

As part of the EE system, all educators in the EE system will be able to access a free, extensive library of professional development materials through LinkedIn Learning over the next three years. Examples of curated resources will be made available. Educators who are interested in requesting a subscription from the DPI may do so at: LinkedIn Learning Subscription Signup
