Practice

We collaborate with educational professionals to address persistent problems of practice and foster system-wide educational transformation.

How We Work

Education professionals operate with their own unique contexts. CSET professional learning and coaching programs integrate educational partners’ needs and aspirations through co-design, and facilitate programs that build capacity and lead to long term sustainable growth. Hundreds of successful educators have participated in our professional learning programs. Our long-term partnerships amplify educators’ abilities and contribute to student success. 

“CSET has been such a tremendous partner in an important and spirited effort to change the way educators see and support students. …I believe this process empowered districts not only in exploring the content of their efforts, but also in articulating a replicable process toward improvement--a true value-added approach.” 
- Alesha Moreno-Ramirez, Director, Multilingual Support Division, California Department of Education
