SCHOOL LEADER

“In the past few years, I've been playing around with providing PD for my teachers virtually."

"PopPD gives me the ability to curate videos and resources I find online into pathways of content. I might even make my own videos! It's easy to use and helps my teachers focus on exactly what they need.”

ORGANIZATION

“We needed to develop a virtual training for the teachers using our program..."

"...but without a Learning & Development specialist on our team, it kept getting pushed to the bottom of our to-do list. PopPD makes it easy for us to roll out our training to teachers through quick, actionable content.”

FAQs

I'm a school leader. How do I pay for my teachers to take a PD listed on your site?

If you’re interested in purchasing a class from our training library created by teachers, please send us a message for our group pricing. We can facilitate payments and assign multiple teachers to a class. If you’re looking to give your teachers a budget to use on classes they choose, reach out to set up an individual wallet for each teacher. We offer bulk pricing on credits and can facilitate payments.

I'm a school leader. Can I use PopPD's platform to host hybrid coaching and training?

Absolutely! You can use your own in-house Instructional Coaches and resources to curate a PD experience, or contact us to connect with one of our PopPD Certified Coaches. Use our platform to empower your Instructional Coaches to set goals, interact with teachers, share personalized resources, and provide feedback.

I'm an educational consultant. Can I use your platform to roll out my PD?

Yes! Consultants use our platform to deliver a professional hybrid learning experience. Rather than sending schools to a YouTube channel and a Facebook group, gather your teachers on PopPD -- an interactive coaching platform they can trust. They’ll love our easy-to-use platform that is designed for implementation. Contact us to apply to become a Certified PopPD Coach to work with our partner schools.

I'm a teacher. How can I get reimbursed for my PD?

Many schools will pay up front for classes from our training library or reimburse your purchase. We have a variety of resources available to help facilitate this process. If your school leaders are interested in learning more about PopPD, please share our information with them!

PopPD is the best place for consultants and coaches to provide a hybrid learning and virtual coaching experience.
