Title IV Consortium

WVEC Title IV Consortium: High-Quality Professional Learning Through Collaboration

The Wabash Valley Education Center(WVEC) offers a cost-effective consortium model for school districts seeking high-quality professional development. By joining the consortium, districts benefit from shared expenses, allowing WVEC to deliver relevant, timely, and impactful learning experiences to educators at a fraction of the typical cost.

As a Member District, schools gain access to a range of valuable opportunities, including:

• Participation for up to two educators per district in each Title IV-eligible workshop and conference. This was over 104 opportunities in 2024/2025.
• Unlimited access to Title IV PD Pops
• Access to Purdue’s virtual STEM field trips and audit opportunities
• Membership in all WVEC network groups for ongoing collaboration and support

WVEC is committed to excellence, bringing in top-tier local, state, and national presenters to ensure professional learning is dynamic and practical. Every offering is shaped by feedback from member districts, making the consortium’s professional development truly responsive to educators’ needs.

"Twin Lakes School Corporation has invested considerable time and resources into providing comprehensive professional development opportunities for our educators by participating as a member of the WVEC Title IV Consortium, and the results have been truly remarkable. Our educators have gained valuable insights into the latest teaching methodologies, instructional strategies, and educational technologies. This has enabled them to create more engaging and interactive learning experiences for our students." -Deb Metzger, Twin Lakes Superintendent

“The North White School Corporation invested in the WVEC Title IV Consortium for the first time this year. In doing so, this allowed our staff members to take full advantage of many of the professional development opportunities which were available in person, through video conferencing or with recorded events. As a superintendent, being able to have these numerous opportunities for our staff with topics that were relevant and impactful is huge. I have had many conversations with our staff members about their experiences and from the feedback I received and knowing the quantity and quality of PD which our staff partook in this year, it is a no brainer to continue as a member of the WVEC Title IV Consortium. I want to thank Judi Hendrix and her outstanding staff at WVEC for continually finding relevant and timely PD opportunities for our teachers and other staff members.” -Nick Eccles, North White Superintendent
