Continued Support Services

Developing the strong relationships necessary for educator and student success requires continuous practice and reinforcement.

FuelEd’s customized ongoing support services provide educators with structured, yet adaptable opportunities to further refine and apply what they have learned through our core programs. By collaborating closely with our team, districts and schools can set clear, personalized objectives aligned with their specific goals—ensuring ongoing development that builds upon the foundational learning provided by the prerequisite WEC workshops.

Train the Trainer

FuelEd’s train-the-trainer model, Growing Empathy, is a powerful, cost-effective capacity-building approach designed to scale the use of empathic communication throughout an entire district or school ecosystem.

Growing Empathy helps education leaders build and sustain school climates where emotionally secure relationships drive teaching and learning, foster wellbeing and create successful caring communities.

Partner with us to bring Growing Empathy to your district or school.

What Educators Are Saying...

Thank you for recognizing the importance and power of this work and for creating this program. Walking away, I am convinced that this is the work from which all the rest of our work as teachers (as humans, really) extends. It has given me the tools to empathize and navigate some difficult conversations. It changes a thousand small things all at once . . . this year is different. I am different.

Empathy School gives you an opportunity to practice what you’re going to take back to your campus. Not only does this apply to my professional life but personal as well. Thank you so much!

I had one teacher, a long time veteran tell me that this was the best teacher professional development she has ever been involved in...it was fantastic. So eye-opening for many people and much different from the professional development they are used to getting.

Principal

Everyone needs this. Personally, I have had a series of really great leadership conversations as a result of the training. I didn't go in thinking I'm going to use what I learned, per se, it was just naturally a better conversation, more authentic because of how I grew in this training.

The FuelEd trainers did a great job and all of the feedback we got back represented the highest validation you can get, really.

This training gave me critical self awareness that is missing from other teacher professional development. It was new to me. That means it is new to everyone else to 'cause I've been around a hot minute. It fundamentally informed how I look at the campus work.
