We strongly believe that providing the best possible educational resources to our children is of paramount importance. To do so, educators must be kept up-to-date on the development and use of successful systems.

Educators are being asked to make instructional decisions based on student data - continued funding will depend on this.  Administrators receive very little training on how to do this and lots of time is spent collecting the data (a labor intensive process) with little or no guidance on how to USE the data to solve problems.

At BEST Workshops for Educators, we've made it our mission to provide educators with excellent trainings on systems and products that have not only been validated by research in peer-reviewed journals, but also field tested by real teachers who report that the product is effective AND easy to use.  We also offer  several helpful services to assist in analyzing district, building, and student level data. 

How are we different from other professional development companies? 

To preserve our integrity, BEST Workshops has chosen not to sell any educational products or systems. This allows us to be selective and offer training only on the best programs currently available. We are constantly attending national and regional conferences, reading journals, and conducting original research in order to find tools that are effective for improving educational outcomes. We hope that you will take a few moments to review our menu of training options and trainer qualifications. Multiple references are available upon request. Thank you.
