The Kentucky Continuous Instructional Improvement Technology System (CIITS) is a platform designed to enhance professional development and evaluation for educators. It serves as a comprehensive approach to managing professional growth, allowing educators to access resources, track their progress, and participate in evaluations that contribute to their ongoing development. By focusing on professional development, CIITS aims to improve instructional quality and ultimately, student outcomes.

This platform recognizes that effective teaching is essential for fostering student achievement and provides the tools necessary for educators to refine their skills and enhance their instructional practices. It enables teachers and administrators to reflect on instructional strategies and receive feedback that is integral to personal and professional growth in the educational setting. The emphasis on evaluation within CIITS also integrates the use of data to inform practice, thereby aligning professional growth directly with the needs of students and the educational institution.
