About The Course
Everyone can use coaching skills to become a better leader. During this course, you will develop and refine your coaching practice to support people in your school, district, or organization to become more effective teachers, teammates, and leaders. Participants will examine their own coaching style with a focus on equity while practicing new coaching skills with each other.
Learn a range of coaching skills, including:
Approaches and stances to establish rapport and trust in coaching relationships
Coaching interventions that build the capacity of individuals to create greater equity
Tools and frameworks to plan, implement, assess, and improve coaching
In addition to coach practice and skill development, you will:
Learn and experience approaches for understanding, raising, and addressing equity issues through the practice of coaching
Reflect on who you are in this work and what skills and knowledge you need to be successful
Deepen your understanding about what it means for you to support the learning, growth and development of another adult.

Because our trainings include attention to building a learning community and interaction with other folks in small groups, we encourage full participation for the duration of the training. However, we understand that our homes and workspaces are commingling in this time. We hope participants can fully engage during sessions, but support participants to attend to their own unique needs.
