Welcome to Hemet Unified's Power Teaching Professional Development page!

Power Teachers of Southern California is a grass roots education reform organization founded in 1999 by three educators: Chris Biffle, philosophy professor at Crafton Hills College, Jay Vanderfin, instructor at Mentone Elementary School and Chris Rekstad, instructor at Valley Elementary School. Over 4,000 educators representing over 150,000 students have attended free Power Teaching conferences. Power Teaching videos have been viewed by thousands of educators around the world.

Earning Hemet Unified professional development credit using Power Teaching videos is simple.
