You have your curriculum—now, how do you make it stick?
Even the best curriculum is only as effective as the instruction behind it. If you’re looking to bridge the gap between “covering the material” and “student mastery,” this is the professional development series you’ve been waiting for.
Our facilitators have been personally trained by Dr. Anita Archer, the leading architect of Explicit Instruction. During this two-day series we will take a deep dive into the core components of Explicit Instruction. You will learn how to apply these evidence-based practices to strengthen instruction within any curriculum or content area and ensure your students master essential content with clarity and confidence.
Please choose either the Fall series dates or the Spring series dates below:
Fall Series Dates: July 30, 2026 and September 29, 2026
Spring Series Dates: February 10, 2027 and May 4, 2027
