Train-the-Trainer: CO-TEACHING That Works, Grades K-12

The Bureau of Education and Research (BER) delivers this Train-the-Trainer workshop on co-teaching strategies for grades K–12, designed for educators who want to build their school's internal capacity to implement effective co-teaching models. Co-teaching—where two educators share responsibility for planning, delivering, and assessing instruction in a shared classroom—has become increasingly important as schools work to support diverse learners in inclusive settings. This workshop equips participants not only with practical co-teaching strategies they can use in their own classrooms, but also with the facilitation skills and materials needed to train their colleagues back at their schools. BER has been providing professional development for educators since 1978, and their workshops are consistently rated among the most practical and immediately applicable PD experiences available. Their Train-the-Trainer format is particularly valuable for schools and districts looking to scale effective practices without the ongoing cost of external consultants—participants leave with comprehensive training materials, presentation resources, and a clear framework for leading professional learning with their peers. Whether you're a special education teacher, general education teacher, instructional coach, or administrator, this workshop provides the tools to make co-teaching partnerships genuinely effective and to spread that expertise across your school community.
