Office of Organizational & Professional learning

The Office of Organizational & Professional Learning is dedicated to developing innovative learning opportunities that are responsive to educator, school, agency, and other stakeholder needs by integrating research, best-practices and voices from the field. We work hard to develop long-term relationships with our clients that allow for partnerships that transform learning. Offering a vast array of topics, each customizable to current culture and climate, we are able to integrate various initiatives across system frameworks while keeping instructional design for all at the forefront of our work.

The Office of Organizational & Professional Learning also supports districts to respond to PDE initiatives, coordinates county-wide student events, facilitates group purchases and spearheads the creation of both online and in-person workshops and courses intended to provide practical skills and information that promote professional growth and student success.
