You may have recently received a welcome email regarding ALSDE Professional Learning that came from the following email address (noreply@truenorthlogic.com). 

This was a legitimate ALSDE communication intended to invite you join the new PowerSchool Professional Learning portal.  This portal is replacing Chalkable PD for all Alabama educators.

ALSDE PowerSchool Professional Learning officially launched October 2019.  With the adoption of any new platform, there are always some opportunities for improvement, and this is no exception.  A number of you may find that your account is not working as expected.  If you find this to be the case, please contact your district technology coordinator or professional learning director for assistance.  If you are no longer with a local school district (WOLEA), then send an email to PLadmin@alsde.edu.
