ParaEducator is an online platform for paraprofessionals with over 100 courses and assessments that can be completed to be considered "highly qualified." Paraprofessionals complete the courses online and then take the assessment in person at SWWC on the designated date and time, as the assessment must be proctored.

It is strongly recommended that paraprofessionals complete the assigned prep courses prior to taking the assessments. Estimate 8 – 12 hours to complete the prep courses. Assessments will then need to be completed, with 70% accuracy, to be considered "highly qualified".

• Courses are organized into bite-sized units and are perfect for training days.
• Post-tests at the end of each course that are automatically graded.
• Training and assessments to highly qualify your paras and meet Title I requirements.
