What they have to say
"Being able to have a SAM that efficiently and effectively supports my efforts to increase time spent in the classrooms, will not only improve my role as an instructional leader, but it will also guide me to improve and enhance teaching and learning throughtout the school."
Reginald Evans, Principal,
Harlan High School
SAM Data Collector Training
We offer training for Illinois faculty and retired district administrators to become trained data collectors.
This is a two day training, though going through the training does not guarantee that you will be certified (you have to pass a series of assessments). Once you become a trained data collector, you can have the opportunity to collect data for pay ($200 per day) in participating Illinois schools as well as schools participating in other states (e.g., Iowa, California, New York, Kentucky, Missouri, and Oregon).
The next two-day training will be held on August 3rd and 4th in the Bone Student Center at Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois. Times for the training are:
9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. on August 3rd
8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. on August 4th
