PD points can be earned through many activities that coaches already participate in. In most cases, coaches are already earning the necessary PD points \u2013 maintaining certified status is simply a new way to document this point acquisition and recognize the efforts of coaches.<\/p>\n<p>Log in to the Locker to view an up-to-date record of your PD points.
