Earn CTLE hours with LearnUFT
As a state-approved provider of continuing teacher and leader education (CTLE) hours, the UFT's LearnUFT program offers low-cost professional learning opportunities specifically designed to meet our members’ needs. State regulations now require all teachers who hold professional certificates and paraprofessionals who hold Level III teaching assistant certificates to collect and track 100 professional development hours (known as CTLE hours) by a state-approved provider in five-year cycles. See our current offerings and also check our UFT courses page.
Please note: CTLE credits will not be given for workshops that have been taken previously.
