About Professional Development

The Professional Development webpage was created to help college reading and learning assistance professionals find links to resources, contacts, and professional development opportunities in one central location. The College Reading and Learning Association wants to "share the best for student success," so please check out the links to find answers to questions and opportunities to enhance your professional development. All resources shown here are free.

Additional professional development resources including podcasts, webcasts, and more, are available to CRLA Members (available under the Member Login). If you are not currently a member, please join CRLA to receive access to these resources and other professional opportunities.
