EXTERNAL PD OPPORTUNITY: Building Confidence and Persistence through Self-Efficacy Instruction

In partnership with ADE/ESS, the College and Career Competencies (CCCs) Project invites you to participate in a free professional learning opportunity. 

Title: Building Confidence and Persistence through Self-Efficacy Instruction 

Description: Students who don’t have confidence in their abilities give up easily when they experience obstacles. They struggle to understand the connection between putting forth effort and making progress. Self-efficacy is an individual’s perception of their ability to complete challenging tasks. Students with strong self-efficacy understand that learning new things is a process that includes multiple attempts, analyzing each attempt, and applying feedback to improve.  

Target Audience: Special education directors, special educators, individual service providers, general education professionals, and professional development coordinators. 

Dates: Tuesday, 2/3 12:00–3:00 pm  & Wednesday, 2/18 9:00 am–12:00 pm 

Sign up now for an interactive, virtual, 3-hour training where educators will learn about self-efficacy, the ten student strategies, and the process for embedding self-efficacy instruction into individualized supports and intervention for students (each session capped at 30 participants).  

Participants will receive: 

  • FREE Self-Efficacy Curricula (primary, intermediate, and secondary) 
  • Training on supporting individual students in self-efficacy instruction through the intervention process 
  • A CEU certificate for completing the training issued by ADE for 5 contact hours. 

Register for Building Confidence and Persistence through Self-Efficacy Instruction 

We hope you can join us! 

View our self-efficacy infographic to see the Self-Efficacy definition and student impacts resulting from instruction.
