The Professional Development Center (PDC) is the outreach agent of the School of Education and Human Development (SEHD) of the University of Southern Maine.

We work collaboratively with SEHD departments and programs, the Southern Maine Partnership, the Maine Department of Education , K-12 schools, human resource organizations, non-profit organizations and professional associations. We develop, implement, and administer credit and non-credit courses, workshops, and institutes to supplement and expand professional development opportunities.
