Professional Development Opportunities

Training of Trainers
CEP will sponsor a Training of Trainers (TOT) week-long institute from February 25 – March 1 in the CEP offices in Washington, DC. This TOT will provide a deep-dive into the 11 Principles and the process for implementing and sustaining comprehensive initiatives in school communities.

CEP is looking for life-long character educator leaders who have made a difference in their own region, who have presentation experience, and who would be able to work on a part-time basis in their own geographic area as a CEP Certified Trainer.

Participation is by Invitation Only – Space is Limited
Participant requirements include pre-institute work, “homework” during the institute week, and a follow-up apprenticeship period. There is a registration fee to attend ($975) which includes all materials, and participants are responsible for their travel expenses.  Geographical location combined with CEP needs will be considered for final selection.

Interested in attending? Send your resume to Barbara Luther, Director of Professional Development, at bluther@character.org along with a short message indicating reasons for your interest.
