K-12 Educator Support

Professional DevelopmentK-12 Educator Support

Educators and policymakers are increasingly looking to teacher professional learning as an important strategy for supporting the complex skills students need to be prepared for further education and work in the 21st century. For students to develop mastery of challenging content, problem-solving, effective communication and collaboration, and self-direction, teachers must employ more sophisticated forms of teaching.

Teachers are Learners Too

That’s why MFPE offers trainings and professional development opportunities specifically geared towards our certified teachers and education support professional. These trainings are designed to help our education professionals hone their skills and meet state and national standards.
