If you plan to work over the holidays, it might be a good time to catch up on some professional development.

If you are looking for some training, the Department of Education issued a Dear Colleague Letter (DCL) on December 14, announcing that all modules in the EDExpress Training course have been updated. According to the DCL, this series of instructional videos and reference guides is designed for anyone who wants to learn how to use the EDExpress for Windows software.

Each module in the series explores a different part of the software and includes multiple lessons on related topics. Modules include:

  • Software Setup
  • EDExpress Basics
  • Packaging Aid
  • Working with ISIRs
  • Pell Origination and Disbursements
  • Direct Loan Origination and Disbursements
  • Teach Grant Lessons
  • Resources

In addition, the Department has added certificates of completion to each of the modules. Participants in the training can download the certificate after completing the lessons and the assessment with score of 80% or higher.

The EDExpress Training course is on the FSA Training Center website
