Advanced Placement Teacher Training Grant

The Georgia Department of Education has announced the Advanced Placement Teacher Training Grant opportunity for Georgia high schools. The purpose of this grant is to assist in training teachers at AP Summer Institutes. Consideration will be given to all high schools with emphasis on schools with the fewest number of AP courses. School districts may apply for a grant to fund AP teacher training in up to two courses per school. Funding is to cover costs (or partial costs), of training expenses including registration, state rate per mile, meals and lodging, if required. Grants may be awarded from a minimum of $500 to a maximum of $1400 per school. Stipends may not be paid from GaDOE grant funds. Administrators may not be trained with GaDOE funds. However, GaDOE grant funds may be combined with local professional development funds and a grant award may be used to train more than one teacher. Applications with instructions were sent to Superintendents and District AP Coordinators. The deadline for application is Wednesday, December 7, 2022. All applications must be received by the Department no later than 4 p.m. on December 7, 2022. For questions, please email Martha Smith.
