Empowering Education Professional Development

Presented by Empowering Education


Bring the power of mindfulness-based social-emotional learning into your school with Empowering Education's comprehensive, evidence-based SEL curriculum — the only fully integrated mindfulness and SEL program of its kind. Empowering Education provides a teacher-led, trauma-informed curriculum designed to build students' self-regulation skills, emotional awareness, and social competence from K through 12. What sets this program apart is its seamless integration of mindfulness practices throughout the SEL curriculum, giving students practical tools for managing stress, improving focus, and developing emotional resilience alongside the broader social-emotional competencies that support academic and personal success. The curriculum features easy-to-follow lesson plans that require minimal preparation, complete with slides for K-8 and optional scripts that make implementation accessible for any teacher. Unified weekly themes and pacing guides foster schoolwide implementation and collaboration, while the trauma-informed design ensures lessons maintain safe classroom cultures and remain relevant to diverse student populations. Every lesson is directly aligned with Common Core Standards, Colorado Academic Standards, 21st Century Student Learning Outcomes, and CASEL's five core competencies, ensuring your SEL instruction meets recognised standards and frameworks. National research supports the impact of schoolwide SEL programs, linking implementation to improved attitudes and behaviours, reduced emotional distress, fewer negative behaviours, and an average 11% increase in academic performance. Empowering Education is ideal for schools and districts looking to implement a comprehensive, standards-aligned SEL program that weaves mindfulness into daily practice and creates a foundation for student wellbeing and academic success.
