SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS | |
Approve the Agreement to Purchase “Leadership Curriculum Training Modules and Implementation” from Southern Regional Education Board (SREB) (Sole-Source) (Administration Division) | |
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY | |
The Leadership Curriculum Training Modules and materials from SREB are considered sole-source and are exempt from the bidding process per Florida Department of Education 6A-1.012 purchasing policies.
Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) is purchasing six Curriculum Modules to use as coursework for all levels of our principal pipeline leadership development programs. Each module provides activities that engage school leaders and school leadership teams in solving real school problems by applying research-based strategies. The modules we are purchasing include:
SREB will provide HCPS with the six training modules, consulting and implementation assistance, and train-the-trainer courses so that we will have current administrators trained to train other administrators. The district trainers will redeliver course content throughout each of the four principal pipeline leadership development programs. |
