Important Points Regarding Act 48 Compliance:

1. Act 48 credits earned through college coursework must be submitted to PDE by the awarding college or university. The school district may not    award Act 48 credit for college coursework. Please contact your college or university's transcript office and instruct them to forward your transcripts to:

Act 48 Transcripts

Pennsylvania Department of Education

333 Market Street-8th Floor

2. When attending school-based or district-level meetings, workshops, or other Act 48-eligible events, be sure to sign the Act 48 sign-in sheets provided by the event facilitator. These sign-in sheets are used to enter/upload Act 48 credits for event participants. Please note that some school-based and district-level meetings are not Act 48-eligible. Only those events that deal directly with issues related to curriculum, instruction, and student achievement are Act-48 eligible.
