"The Resilient Educator Orientation"
(Closed)
Faculty Development
7/31/2009 9:00 AM 2.0 Hrs. Location: TBA
This is a 2-hour introductory course to "The Resilient Educator." You will receive an overview, 2 basic tools, and a brief demonstration of the PC EM (formerly known as the HeartMath Freeze Framer--a tool to reduce stress, and other "unhealthy" emotions). The Resilient Educator (our 6-hour training course) is a powerful, highly relevant training program that helps educators boost performance, improve school relationships, and strengthen resiliency. Acclaimed by educators for its new ideas and solid foundation in neuroscience, the program's proven techniques are easy to learn and help rekindle educators' motivation and energy. Information applies to the participant themselves and their students. This course is designed for educators only. Classroom size will be limited. For additional information, go to www.heartmath.org. NOTE: This introductory course is not a pre-requisite for the 6-hr course. It is for those individuals who are unable to attend the longer version. Information covered here, will be addressed in the extended course. Notes: Student Success Training
