On-site and Blended Professional Development Options

Member schools receive priority consideration for teacher training seminars and professional teacher development with ACSI personnel. We recommend a blended learning(1) environment or coordination with other schools in your area to increase the sustainability and impact of training sessions. ACSI consultants will prioritize their availability for schools that work together for a regional professional development activity.

Teacher training for specific needs can also be made available to your school upon request. We can serve schools with several categories and topics for professional development.

 

School and Classroom Culture - with topics such as discipline and classroom management, mentoring programs and methods, trauma informed care, restorative practices, and developing a culture of belonging

 

Curriculum and Teaching Strategies - with topics such as collaborative teaching and learning, trauma informed care, Biblical integration strategies, supporting students with special needs, assessment strategies, engagement and motivation strategies, and lesson/unit/course planning

 

School Leadership and Governance - with topics such as quality teacher supervision and teacher coaching, board relations, mission alignment, curriculum development, parental engagement, distinctives of Christian school education, Christian school management, professional learning communities, strategic planning, and starting a Christian school

 

Student Service and Leadership Development - with topics such as developing a Student Leadership program, service learning strategies, and mentoring programs and methods

 

Please contact us by phone or E-mail to request a consultation to discuss your teacher training needs. Prices for on-site training vary depending on the region, the length of the training and the current membership status of the school.
