The login for Professional Growth AND Absence Management is the same username and password.
Absence Management:
You want to login before 7AM to record your absence if you are sick otherwise you will likely need to call your building directly to enter a sick day.

Professional Growth:
This is where your professional growth is recorded. There are a series of forms where you set goals for yourself throughout the year and where your administrator will record observations and walkthroughs of your performance.
