Research shows that nurturing self-confidence, enhancing students’ sense of belonging, and helping them learn to recognize and manage emotions effectively can significantly benefit students and lead to greater course persistence and success. 

Join this new eight-week professional learning workshop series to build your awareness of and capacity using the Cultivating Inclusive and Resilient Communities of Learning (CIRCL) Framework to attend to the full needs of your students and enhance and support their learning experience. 

Learning alongside peers and guided by WestEd’s Lead Researcher for CIRCL, Haley McNamara, you’ll explore each of the framework’s six drivers and gain experience implementing and adapting the research-based routines and practices in your classroom and institutions. The series consists of five, one-hour online synchronous workshops, with approximately one hour of pre-work before each online session. 

Workshop fee: $450 for 10 professional development hours
