A Synergetic Approach to Social-Emotional Learning: Advanced Course

This 6-hour advanced course explores supporting other adults and working with high levels of dysregulation. We’ll build upon content learned in the foundational and intermediate programs.

Using a developmental framework, this class is for educators and leaders that are supporting other adults. Participants will learn to determine how best to support teachers in understanding how to work with their own, and their students,’ states of arousal. They will learn how to support other adults through teaching concepts, and through being an external regulator. Educators will identify ways to support others in understanding their vital role in social-emotional learning from an inclusive and trauma-informed perspective.

As we deepen our understanding of the concept of different and complementary roles we will learn to work with other adults from a developmental perspective – meeting them where they are, just like we are asking them to do with students.
