TASL Credit Programs

Administrators required to attend the Tennessee Academy for School Leaders (TASL) may choose to earn credit by attending approved TASL credit programs. All credit programs are comparable in quality to the regular TASL academies and address national standards of competence for school administrators, the Master Plan for Tennessee, other state initiatives, and/or local goals and needs.

These programs are sponsored by offices of the Tennessee Department of Education, as well as other TASL-approved organizations and approved for TASL credit by the Office of Professional Development. Registration for each of these programs is handled by the sponsoring organization.
