In-Service Credit
In-Service Credit
If your school district will honor your time spent at LIAOSA for in-service credit, please indicate your requirement for an in-service certificate. After the last session of the school year, the Membership Chairperson will total the hours attended and issue an in-service certificate for you to present to your school district, or to the state for professional development requirements. Please sign in to each workshop before 10am, and sign out at 2pm. Each workshop is worth 5 hours, but only 2.5 can be given if you do not sign out!

Once in the application, students will select Orff Schulwerk Training from a drop down of “majors” (as opposed to General Nonmatriculated Studies) and the only document needed for the purpose of the application is a copy of either a master’s degree transcript or bachelor’s degree transcript. From there, Hofstra processes the admission and will follow up with students to complete registration forms via email.
