DLC Coaching Collaborative

If leaders consistently come together, share learnings and resources, and collaboratively develop skills and solutions, then leaders will grow significantly as professionals and dramatically improve outcomes for diverse learners in their schools.

 

Calling all: District and school-based coaches, coordinators, deans and leaders working with Multilingual Learner and/or Special Education teams

Join other leaders from across Tennessee as we develop the core competencies and creative solutions required of a Diverse Learner Leader. Develop coaching skills, practical resources, and a professional network that will translate to your team’s success and sustainability.


In-Person Professional Development

Coaching Collaborative will meet for six full days of development throughout the summer (2 days) and school year (4 days) to develop core competencies and build a network of role-alike professionals.

Resource Creation and Sharing

Apply learnings and practices using evidence-based tools and resources that have been tailored for the cohort. Leverage materials provided by the DLC and your cohort peers to set and achieve your school-based goals.

On-Site, Targeted
Coaching

A DLC Coach will provide two on-site consults to each member of the Coaching Collaborative. Collaborative members will also access their coach and their peers for technical assistance throughout the year.

Spots are very limited and secured on a first-come, first-served basis.

The cost for a year of participation is $3,000 per Coach.

How leaders will benefit…

  • Coaches will have opportunities to see how other schools address similar challenges. Being part of this cohort lightens the load of coaches and other school leaders by reducing time spent on isolated problem solving.

  • Coaches will have the support of their DLC coach to identify, plan, and execute year-long goals, based on personalized self-assessments and school-based needs.

  • Coaches will develop into more effective and strategic leaders. Their work from this year will carry forward and bring change for years to come.

  • The cost to participate and receive a year’s worth of support is a minimal investment for outsized impact.
