Participant Voices of Success
- "This has been the best and most useful professional training I have attended in my 8 years as an educator! I learned so much that I can’t wait to implement in my classroom."
- "[The Qualified Evaluator Training] was a wonderful and valuable experience for administrators at all stages of their career. It provided valuable information and tools. Not to mention, multiple opportunities to discuss and practice applying/using new information/techniques."
- “I usually have hesitations about the quality of PDs…I’m leaving this PD energized to share this information with my admin and team…However, I will use these tools as soon as I get back to class.”
- “ADE’s training on The Well-Managed Classroom was helpful and engaging. The instructors provided useful skills to apply in the classroom.”
