Professional Development

Believe In You Professional Development is provided by the OPEN National Training Team. Since 2015, OPEN National Trainers have been providing meaningful and rigorous professional learning for teachers across the United States.

BIY Professional Development is currently available in-person and virtually. We will schedule a trainer to work on-site with your teachers, or using your school district web conferencing system (e.g., Zoom, Google, or Teams).

Choose 1 or both titles to build a full 6-hour professional development event. Train more teachers with two 3-hour sessions. In-person events are $3,450. Virtual events (90 minutes) are $925 (attendance limited is based on your conferencing system). Our goal is to train as many teachers as possible.

For more information, submit a request for proposal and a member of the OPEN National Training Team will contact you within 48 hours.

“Professional Development days are crucial in a teacher’s own development. Many of my colleagues echoed the sentiment that this was the best PE Day we’ve had in over 20 years! The OPEN National Trainer’s program design was absolutely perfect, and the delivery was FANTASTIC!” – Jason Fied, Teacher, North Attleboro, MA
