 (1) SEL and Equity 101: A Practical Approach (April  Terrell)

This webinar will aid participants in viewing SEL from an equity perspective. Centering on the self awareness competency, one will begin to think about comfortability and capability of discussing topics of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Justice, and Belonging with students; we will define common language and terms; and determine ways to serve as an anti-racist educator.

 

(2) Academy Overview:  How and Why to Obtain a Certificate in SEL Instruction and/or SEL School Leadership (Patricia Heindel, Maurice Elias)

 As an SEL practitioner—whether working directly with students or leading adults in bringing SEL into your school as an SEL Coordinator, lead teacher, or school administrator—having a certificate from the Academy connects you with a network of professionals sharing your job all over the US and the world.  Stop reinventing the wheel and start benefiting from colleagues’ work and sharing your own innovations!  This webinar will introduce you to the Academy and its primary approaches to fostering social-emotional and character development in schools.

(5) Leading SEL Implementation in Schools  (William Trusheim, Donna Black, Vickie Blakeney)

Come and join us for this webinar which covers fundamental theory and practice regarding Social-Emotional Learning, Character Development, and School Culture and Climate at the level of the program, school, or district.  A basic understanding of these fundamentals leads to a discussion of important leadership principles and practices that help to engage staff, students, parents, and community in building these life skills into the fabric of the school program. Finally, it is important for leaders in a school or district to understand how to develop a core of followers and distribute both leadership and ownership of the program to others invested in the school’s success.
