Customized On-Site Professional Development

Our consultant/trainers can help you assess needs in your school or district, and will tailor a program of training, coaching and consultation to meet those needs. Training sessions are typically designed for up to 30 participants, in order to allow participants in these hands-on sessions enough access to the facilitators.

Among the content areas we can adapt and tailor for your time frames, audiences, and specific needs:

G Suite (Google Apps) for Education - Wherever your district, schools, or educators are on the Google continuum, from basic to advanced, we can create a tailored program of training and coaching to optimize your launch or ongoing implementation of G Suite.

Digital Learning - We offer consulting, training and guidance to enhance understanding of instructional design principles for online learning, and can assist you in planning and developing your own online learning; and developing digital citizenship skills.

ISTE Certification Training - ISTE Certification is a new competency-based, vendor-agnostic educator certification based on the ISTE Standards for Educators. This digital credential recognizes educators who understand how to use educational technology for learning in meaningful and transformative ways.
