Are you tired of traditional staff development and the “phantom” implementation that never materializes?
Our process is about you and your classroom.
The ERG job-embedded process differentiates support to meet the individual needs of teachers. This approach creates real impact at multiple levels by strengthening the link between educational theory and successful classroom implementation.
Working alongside teachers in their classrooms allows ERG Consultants to provide immediate personalized formative feedback, both oral and written, ensuring that changes are implemented and are benefitting students right away. Teachers gain confidence and self-efficacy because they are given support as they implement strategies in their own classrooms.
Teachers appreciate that the job-embedded process is not evaluative in nature. Instead, they form a trusting relationship with the knowledgeable and experienced Consultant whose goal it is to make them a better educator.
