The Southern Regional Institute (SRI) and Educational Technology Training Center (ETTC) provide professional development opportunities for preK-12 educators, technology coordinators, school administrators, and other professionals who offer support serv
ices to schools. The overall goal of the SRI are to improve student academic achievement, organization effectiveness, employee performance, and user satisfaction. The ETTC’s goal is to offer technology training and technology services to school districts to enhance the education available to students through the creative use of educational technologies in the classroom.
The Southern Regional Institute and ETTC Consortium includes school districts and other regional organizations in Atlantic, Camden, Cumberland, Cape May, Ocean and Burlington counties. The consortium represents approximately 90,000 PreK-12 students and more than 24,000 educators.
In 1996, the New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) awarded a total of $10 million in three-year grants to local school districts in each of the state's 21 counties to create an Educational Technology Training Center (ETTC) as a county-based resource center that offered educators professional development opportunities in technology. With the support of the twenty-four school districts in Atlantic County, the Atlantic County ETTC was established at the Stockton University. Because of its broad success in meeting program goals as well as the needs of local school districts, in July 2002, the NJDOE designated the Atlantic County ETTC as the Southern Regional ETTC and then went on to charge the Stockton University to develop an institute devoted to the study and delivery of K-12 professional development.
By December 2002, the Stockton University Board of Trustees unanimously approved the establishment of the Southern Regional Institute (SRI), significantly expanding the programming available to the region.
More than fifteen years after the creation of the Atlantic County ETTC, the SRI & ETTC Is thriving, and has become the primary provider of non-credit professional development for educators in southern New Jersey.
The success of the SRI&ETTC can be attributed to its consortium members and partnerships, to the quality and diversity of programming that is provided each year, and to a talented and dedicated staff. Over the years, the SRI & ETTC has grown considerably in its membership, workshop offerings, and program registrations which are clear illustrations of the value SRI & ETTC provides to the educational community.
In spring 2008, the SRI & ETTC proudly announced its reorganization under the new School of Education at Stockton University (the only ETTC to be part of School of Education).
The SRI & ETTC Demonstration Center, classrooms, and offices are located at the Parkway Building at 10 West Jimmie Leeds Road, Galloway. Workshops and other programming is held at this location, on the main campus of Stockton University and at Stockton's instructional sites in Atlantic City, Hammonton, Manahawkin and Woodbine Visit the SRI&ETTC Calendar to search workshops by location.

New Traffic Pattern!
Drivers are no longer able to access Jimmie Leeds Road via the Atlantic City Rest Area.
When planning your route to the SRI&ETTC please plan to use Exit #41 of the Garden State Parkway.
Please note: if a driver were to inadvertently get off on the rest area instead of the new Exit #41, the only option will be to get back on the parkway and go to the next legal exits for a u-turn, which in the case of north bound commuters would mean Exit #50 in Burlington County as there is no legal u-turn until that exit.
If you are using the Garden State Parkway please follow these directions:
Traveling North on the Garden State Parkway:
