Long-Term Partnerships
Implement a systemic approach to coaching
Long-term partnership has the greatest likelihood of turning professional learning into professional practice. It aids in sustainable coaching cultures where coaching becomes a practice everyone in the system embraces. This type of partnership moves schools and districts beyond workshops and courses to promote deeper implementation of research-based instructional coaching.
Partnership can involve not only workshops but also coaching of coaching leaders, consistent communication support, and embedded work on district- and school-specific concerns.

Seven Factors for success
A personalized service designed around your school or district’s specific needs
Our 20+ years of research has shown us there are seven areas that must be engaged to ensure a successful coaching program. Without purposeful development and support in all seven areas, your coaching program will not meet its maximum potential, allowing opportunities for educators to become discouraged, and those who are the most vulnerable—your students— will suffer the most loss.
