For every eligible printer cartridge turned into a Wisconsin Staples store for reuse or recycling, the company will donate $1 to WEAC's Professional Development Academy (PDA) as part of its "Recycle for Education" program. The program has been extended to December 31, 2005.
"WEAC is proud to participate in a program that has a double benefit: It helps the environment and it provides funding for an important education program," WEAC President Stan Johnson said.
PDA will use the money to support the development and delivery of quality professional development programs for WEAC members. Those programs include certification for education support professionals, an online substitute teacher training program, substitute teacher training classes, mentor training modules, and various inservices and workshops. PDA is now developing two new online classes: a classroom management course; and a tutorial in reading, writing and math for paraeducators.
WEAC members and others can participate in the "Recycle for Education" program at Staples stores through December 31.
