Introduction

Below is a breakdown of the activities completed for part two of the professional growth

plan. This assignment originally proposed certificates to certify completion; however,

certificates are awarded even if quizzes are not passed. Therefore, evidence of course and

quiz completion is presented first. The completion evidence provides information such as the

title of the course, attendance, topics completed, date of completion, date of assessment, and

passing score. All course certificates are presented in the appendix. Two were not completed

and have been noted accordingly within the activity description area.

Reflection on Personal Growth

Through the Element K courses, I have learned that communication must be done

collaboratively in order to align employees, staff, and students, with key organizational

objectives. Clearly defined goals help each group move towards a common objective.

Understanding this concept is essential in becoming a Head of School and can continue to be a

part of my own development that continuously gets refined.
