Educator Workshops
Gain knowledge and strategies to support your professional growth.
About Educator Workshops
Gain knowledge and instructional strategies that will support your professional growth regardless of the subject or grade level you teach. Our educator workshops apply best practices in adult learning and teach research-based instructional strategies to help reduce barriers for students. Participants engage with materials as their students would, reflect on their learning and how to apply it, and collaborate with colleagues from across the Chicagoland area – all with the support of Griffin MSI’s dedicated Senior Educators.
Throughout the year Griffin MSI’s education team runs programming to support teachers in the classroom through continuing education.
