Upcoming Summer Session: July 7 – August 24 New Dates!

OPEN NH is growing a cost-effective statewide online professional development system geared to school or district needs. We do this by selecting and training facilitators, designing online courses specifically tied to the needs of NH schools and educators, and researching effective online professional development.

We invite you to browse the Course Catalog and the Current Course Schedule for the upcoming term, choose your registration type (individual or group), then register and join your colleagues in a course or two!

Online Course Model

We use a 7 week discussion based model for our courses. There is a 1 week orientation unit followed by 6 weeks of content. The course content is 100% online and no additional materials are required. Each unit consists of readings and participation in discussions. An authentic course project is developed throughout the 7 weeks of the course which you can use in your classroom or school. You should plan to schedule approximately 4-5 hours each week to commit to the course. Following successful completion of the course, you will earn a Certificate of Completion for 30 contact hours of professional development.

Face to Face Orientation Meetings

There are optional face to face introduction/orientation meetings held before the start of each session. We invite all those who register for an OPEN NH course as well as anyone interest in learning more about our program to attend. See our Orientation Page for details.
