Please note: Ticket purchases are non-refundable. A refund and/or credit is NOT given for missed workshops. All virtual workshops are taught in a live format in the Eastern Time Zone (EDT).

Practice Based Coaching Training

WHY PRACTICE-BASED COACHING: EVERY TEACHER DESERVES A COACH Practice-Based Coaching (PBC) is an evidence-based system designed to change teacher practices, improving children's outcomes. Currently, Vermont has a limited number of Practice-Based coaches, and external Practice-Based Coaches are costly. Programs with trained coaches succeed in two ways; there is a direct impact on learning outcomes by improving teaching practices, and with in-house coaches, coaching costs are significantly reduced, thus making coaching more sustainable. Pyramid 802 Plus (P802P) is dedicated to increasing the number of trained and qualified coaches by offering this training. IN THIS TRAINING, YOU WILL LEARN: 1) THE COMPONENTS OF PBC, 2) FORMATS USED IN PBC, 3) THE IMPORTANCE OF COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS IN PBC, 4) HOW TO IMPLEMENT EACH COMPONENT OF PBC We will be using the Pyramid Model Framework to inform this training because it is the framework that informs Early MTSS in Vermont. We are aware that Practice Based Coaching can be used for many different teaching practices

Overcoming Barriers to Protecting Children from Sexual Abuse

Participants will: a) distinguish healthy behaviors from boundary violations and pre-offending behaviors; b) practice directly addressing concerning behaviors. Individuals and communities have a strong desire to prevent child sexual abuse. However, they often face barriers to protecting children, including having relationships with those exhibiting concerning behaviors. In this workshop participants will consider what adults can do to assist communities in overcoming these common barriers to protecting children, creating safe spaces through a trauma-informed lens. This program is for teachers and care givers of children of all ages, with a particular emphasis on infants through after school.
