Research and Evidence-Based Professional Development for K12 and Early Learning
Cultivate partners with ESDs, Districts and Schools to deliver research and evidence-based Professional Development that supports developing High Quality Environments for Children & Adults to learn and work.
Our Professional Development is rooted in MicroPD video modules. MicroPDs are short (8-15 minutes long) animated videos that teach research and evidence-based strategies specific to a topic or skill our school partners have identified as important. We aim for our MicroPDs to cut down on the time and complexity usually involved when adopting and training staff on evidence and research-based practices. Each module is accompanied by discussion questions and scenarios for application all embedded within preset agendas, slides and resource guides.
Flexible Delivery and Fully Customizable Scope & Sequence
Cultivate's flexible online platform supports a number of modes of delivery of professional development including Train the Trainer, Professional Learning Communities and Asynchronous Training Options. Cultivate works with you to determine customize a scope & sequence that meets the needs of the individual school or region.
