NEW JERSEY COLLABORATIVE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT



NEW JERSEY LEADERS TO LEADERS (NJ-L2L)

RESIDENCY PLAN

The Residency Plan is intended to serve as a general plan for the two-year Residency that will focus Residents and their Mentors on the State’s requirements for the Residency, and also ensure their understanding of and commitment to the program’s requirements and process.

The State-required Residency Plan will be completed by the Resident in consultation with his/her Mentor prior to beginning the two-year Residency period. Timelines indicated for each activity in the Residency Plan are understood to be approximate or proposed and should be shown only as month and year. Where activities may be ongoing throughout the year, indicate as “Ongoing”.

NOTE: Both the Year 1 AND Year 2 Residency Plans should be completed.

The signed original of the Residency Plan will be submitted by the Mentor to NJ-L2L Program Coordinator within two (2) weeks of the initial Mentor/Resident meeting prior to beginning the Residency. NJ-L2L will transmit the Residency Plan to the NJ Department of Education, and a copy will be retained by NJ-L2L in the Resident’s file.

Residents and Mentors should retain a copy of the Residency Plan for their records and future reference. A copy of the Residency Plan should also be retained by the District Contact Person to ensure that the District has knowledge of the Residency Plan and requirements, and that the District will provide the support needed by Residents to successfully complete the Residency Program.

Questions regarding completion of the Residency Plan should be directed to the NJ-L2L Program Coordinator.
