We Don’t Do “Irrelevant” Professional Development: Why the Stern Center Has a 95% Teacher Satisfaction Rating

July 16, 2024

graphic of the amount of teachesrs who have taken our professional development courses

According to EdWeek, 48% of teachers report that their professional development is irrelevant to their daily instruction. At the Stern Center, we recognize the value of funding, teacher time, and the need for relevant and engaging professional learning. That’s why our interactive workshops, consulting services, and coaching sessions result in a 95% teacher satisfaction rating. 

This overview outlines our professional development options and this overview presents some examples. Invest in relevant, literacy-focused professional development that will move the needle for your staff and your students. Email the Director of Professional Learning, Leigh Buettler, at lbuettler@sterncenter.org to set up a time to discuss what best fits your needs.

Because we know that when teachers grow, students grow.
