Get Started

Everyone in your school has a part to play in supporting human flourishing. Not everyone has taken Montessori teacher training—or needs to.

In this six-week self-guided course, participants work with a school-based facilitator to explore Montessori principles and practices, the school as a prepared environment, and the things they can do to support human development in any role.

Office staff, support staff, specialists, facilities and nutrition staff, and others will bring more understanding to their work after this course, building a cohesive and robust whole school Montessori environment.

Enrollment

This course requires a school-based facilitator, typically a coach or school leader, to work alongside participants and tailor the content to the particular school.  

Before the course, the facilitator first completes a free 30-minute self-guided orientation.

After completing the orientation, the facilitator can enroll participants for $230 per person.
