CESA 5 offers high-quality, up-to-date training and support in Title I and other ESEA topics. Part of the Statewide Title I Network, our specialists regularly attend state-level meetings in order to bring you the most current information in today’s ever-changing educational climate.

Our basic Title I services include informational meetings which focus on Title I guidelines and program design for Title I Coordinators. These meetings are free to attend. In addition, CESA 5 provides high quality professional development workshops for Title I teachers and practitioners. These events are available at a reduced rate of $25 per person.

CESA 5 does offer additional Title I services with paid membership to our Student Achievement Consortium. Services include on-site support and free attendance to Title I workshops. Some districts may choose to hire our agency to manage their ESEA online application, as well.

All meetings are held from 9AM-2PM at CESA 5. Register at www.myquickreg.com.
