Mexican Education Workshops
   for professional development

Thank you for your interest in our classes! We are certain you will enjoy them as they are fast-paced, content rich and lots of fun!

Click on any class title that sounds interesting to review the course content, homework, art projects, cost and what to bring to class.

These classes are good for ANY teacher needing a professional development salary point and they also meet the requirement for "multicultural specific" salary points. These workshops are approved by the Los Angeles Unified School District. All classes are 15 "seat" hours and 30 hours of homework. Teachers from outside the LAUSD or a private school are welcome to take our classes, but you should check first with your administration to see if this course is approved for credit in your district or applicable for reimbursement.

Internet Registration: Select the class with dates you prefer and place order in the shopping cart.

For each class ordered, you will be mailed a packet containing a class admission certificate, along with confirmation of class location, dates and times and list of things to bring. This packet will be sent to the address provided the week before the class.
Don't forget your brown bag lunch & wear art clothes!

Please note that the shopping cart automatically adds a "shipping charge" which we will immediately credit back to your credit card.

Mail in Registration: You may choose to print out an order blank, fill in your selection, and pay with check or c/card. Please do not order merchandise with your class, use a separate order blank.

A digital camera is required for the homework, as well as access to Microsoft PowerPoint software program. If you do not wish to learn PowerPoint, you may substitute a 35mm camera and slide film.
