Teacher cannot track accumulated professional development clock hours needed for license renewal because past districts did not submit hours and physical certificates were not always provided.

Workarounds Described

• Relies on districts to submit hours without verification
• Did not always keep physical certificates

Implied Software Gaps

• Personal PD hour tracking and certificate repository that works independently of employer submission

LicenseTrack PD

A mobile and web app that lets teachers upload, organize, and track professional development clock hours from any provider. It automatically calculates totals towards renewal requirements, reminds users of deadlines, and stores digital copies of certificates. Syncs with state licensing portals where available.
