Professional Development

Are you an educator looking for professional development opportunities? Johnson & Wales University's Professional Learning Initiative connects you with courses and workshops on key teaching and educational leadership issues.

Connect theory with best practices — often through an essential fieldwork component. Make, identify and solve problems and connect what you learn with student outcomes.

As teachers, you must challenge long-established attitudes to create change. In these programs, explore:

• Technologies that focus on 21st century digital learners
• Effective instructional pedagogies in a specific discipline
• Improved classroom management techniques

Unique Design of Services
Our design of services is based on the specific needs of a business/school/district.

Instructional delivery, experiential learning and the evaluation instrument will be planned collaboratively with the client.

The design of service will include all the appropriate educators of the education continuum; paraprofessionals, teachers, coaches, administrators in pk-12 and faculty, administrators and trainers in the educational and business sector.
