Deepen your team's impact.
70% of all internal transformations fail1—and with educators citing initiative fatigue as one of the most draining aspects of their jobs, administrators must evaluate the efficacy of a new solution against the cost of “adding another thing”.
As a team of educators, we get it. Put simply, we believe good implementation matters.
Our new professional learning (PD) courses connect the dots—empowering educators via on-demand lessons that not only deepen their use of the MajorClarity platform but also build understanding of career and college (CCR) best practices.
