Opportunity Culture® Professional Learning
Supporting your journey as an Opportunity Culture® educator
Our professional learning supports educators in preparing, reflecting on, and adjusting their work with students and teachers. These engaging sessions, grounded in adult learning principles and research-based content, bring educators across the country together to share their talents and experience through group reflection, collaboration, and problem-solving.
Our professional learning draws from a variety of sources and frameworks, such as Get Better Faster by Paul Bambrick-Santoyo and The Art of Coaching by Elena Aguilar, as well as what works in schools using Opportunity Culture® roles, to tailor the learning to exactly what educators in these roles need.
We offer:
sessions specific to each role,
choice-based delivery format grounded in the best practices of these schools,
built-in time to collaborate and share expertise with educators from across the country,
sessions during the summer, and throughout the school year, and
certificates for all professional learning sessions with hours for live and asynchronous learning.
Summer Professional Learning
We offer virtual and in-person sessions for educators in Opportunity Culture® roles.
School-Year Professional Learning
Educators continue to develop their leadership and instructional skills in sessions throughout the year.
Additional Professional Learning
Prospective and experienced teacher-leaders can benefit from additional professional learning support—from the Aspiring Multi-Classroom Leader™ Academy to our SIMPLE-TC™ tutoring design series.
District Capacity-Building Support
During the summer and school year, we provide support for district leaders—those both new to and experienced with this staffing design—and those in Opportunity Culture® director roles.
Registration for national professional learning sessions is limited to individuals in Opportunity Culture® roles, through our online portal. If your district has not worked with us and you are not sure whether your educators qualify, we’d love to learn more about your implementation. Contact us to become a recognized site!
