Educator Professional Development

"The Whole Educator Collective did a great job of peeling back the layers of the individuals present. Our trainers were amazing at keeping us on pace as well as being upfront with each other. This professional development really should be required for all teachers. Having this level of introspection at the beginning of every teacher's career would inherently make all teachers much better, more aware educators."

"This was literally life-changing. Thank you."

"The Whole Educator Collective explains the science behind who we are, why we do what we do and how we can move forward to be the best version of ourselves. The training encouraging group work and partner shares, it creates a safe space for people to feel okay with being vulnerable and in tune with their emotions and thoughts. I thought it was wonderful!"

"FuelEd's programs give many opportunities for educators to practice the skills with real life situations. Additionally, it gives educators the perspective of both being the one showing empathy and being shown empathy. This training was not only informative, but cathartic and the timing was amazing!"

"Whole Educator Collective allows participants to get to know who they are and what drives them and their emotions which, in turn, allows them to translate their knowledge of self into action that better serves their students, colleagues, and peers."

"Whole Educator Collective did a great job of breaking down the different components of relationships in both personal life and at school. It was so incredibly helpful.

"This program does a really good job of communicating concepts I had heard of but did not have words for . . . I'm looking forward to doing FuelEd again!"

"Empathy School breaks the concept down into really manageable pieces — each workshop allows participants to completely engage and understand the concept. I am walking away feeling capable of implementing these things into my life."

"The training makes you take a step back and realize all of the times you haven’t shown empathy as much as you really needed to. I’m really thankful for this training. I think that every educator needs this check to bring us back to the fact that we all need empathy."

“FuelEd helps you to see how relationships can be built to impact the culture of your school. I feel blessed to have been able to take part in this. It's a gift of time to reflect and grow in a way that I haven't experienced in ally other professional development.”

"This training is of the most influential and meaningful trainings I have ever participated in. It does an excellent job at getting to the heart of the underlying issues impacting our abilities to develop and maintain healthy attachments and will have a huge impact on how I approach, repair, and strengthen relationships."

"This program really shows the proper way to communicate feelings, and to show empathy to others. The training is life changing."

“I had preconceived notions about students’ challenges and how they can "help themselves," but this training made me realize I need to first understand WHO they are. Empathy School helped me have a greater understanding that students see and experience things differently. This will help me slow down and spend more time letting my open up. Empathetic listening involves less of me and more of them. This training will change my approach to making my students feel comfortable and seen.”

“Empathy School allows space for participants to feel and process, while giving us the technical pieces for building empathy. This made our teachers feel so good!”

“Whole Educator Collective was a very transformational experience. I've been to a lot of professional development and I would put this on top. Most trainings are for teachers to go back and do something with their kids, but this was about adults finding their secure attachment. This was refreshing. It was focusing on the soul of the individual.”
