Your questions, answered

We know choosing the right professional learning partner is a critical decision. Here are answers to questions we hear most from district leaders like you. Don’t see your question? We are here to help–reach out anytime.

How do you customize professional learning for our district’s specific needs?

Every partnership begins with a comprehensive needs assessment to understand your goals, challenges, and current initiatives. Our team—over 90% of whom are former educators—collaborates with your leadership to design a professional learning plan aligned to your district priorities, whether it is data-driven instruction, implementation support, or systematic improvement.

How do we measure the impact of professional learning?

We establish clear success metrics from the start: product usage, assessment data, teacher confidence, or student growth. Throughout our engagement, we monitor progress together and adjust accordingly, ensuring measurable impact aligned to your district goals.

Can professional learning be delivered virtually, or does it need to be in person?

We offer flexible delivery options. Remote hours provide convenient virtual support, while onsite days deliver immersive experiences. Many districts elect a blended approach, combining personal connection with flexibility. We will help determine the right mix for your needs.

What types of courses are available in Educator Academy?

Educator Academy offers both Standard and Premium access levels. Standard access includes essential product basics, while Premium unlocks our complete catalog of role-specific learning paths and advanced feature training. Each product has a Knowledge Base that provides a comprehensive listing of all available courses by access level to help you identify the training that best meets your needs.

How does Champions Academy help sustain professional learning beyond initial training?

Champions Academy develops teacher leaders who become on-campus experts. These champions receive specialized training and ongoing support to coach peers and lead building-level professional development, creating sustainable internal capacity that extends well beyond our work together.
