The NCMPS Coaches Training is designed for adults preparing to do coaching work in schools, and leadership teams who will be working with them.

Montessori Coaching is a holistic framework for supporting Montessori teachers in classrooms, and for partnering with school leadership teams to help the whole school grow towards an environment supporting human development and flourishing. This seven-week online training prepares coaches to support effective, equitable Montessori classroom practice and to work with school leaders to grow and strengthen developmentally supportive practices throughout the school, including the whole-school environment, family engagement, Lesson Study, Child Study, and more.

“NCMP Coaches Training provided the optimal delivery, learning and resources to support me to onboard a thoughtful and reflective coaching model in my school. The resources you have access to after the training are valuable tools and provide an ease to do this work.”

Coaches Training includes videos, readings, and seven live sessions.

More testimonials:

“The training is motivating and inspiring. I left with insight and practical tools to use right away in my coaching/mentoring practice.”

“The NCMPS’ Coaching Training was chock full of valuable tools, references, and conversations for any Montessori coaching practice. It was well worth the time and expenses for seasoned observers.”
