The purpose of the Personnel Management Assistance Team (PMAT) is to
provide technical assistance to school districts in establishing and
maintaining effective personnel management, recruitment, selection, and
hiring and retention practices.  The PMAT Region D: 9 Collaborative
consists of three county offices, including Orange County Department of
Education, San Diego County Office of Education, and Imperial County
Office of Education.  Each county office offers unique services and
training opportunities to support districts in the specific geographic
region in which a school district is located.  The Orange County
Department of Education offers a variety of training and professional
development opportunities for teachers, administrators and district
staff to support school districts in building capacity to sustain highly
effective recruitment, selection, hiring, retention, and teacher
development planning and practices.
