This issue of the PAIS Newsletter includes articles on bridge programs, program accreditation, program portfolios, and professional development for K–12 paraprofessionals. We’re very happy to include articles that address different contexts in which program administrators work. As we learn more about each other and our programs, we see our common challenges and can benefit greatly from our common experience.

We see this newsletter as a forum for our community to share ideas and best practices in administration, and we continue to look forward to receiving your submissions and learning from one another.

The next issue will be published in late January. Please consider contributing articles and book reviews.

Warm regards,

Jackie and Hannaliisa
