§ 16-66-2. Findings.
The general assembly has found and declares that:
(1) In-service education is different from pre-service education. Effective staff development
            programs are directed at educational improvements and also encourage the professional
            development of individual participants.
         
(2) In-service education, whether local, state, or federally supported, must be designed
            as an integral part of the school program.
         
(3) The most effective in-service education programs are those with a high degree of participant
            control.
