Professional development
Built by teachers for teachers
Your time is valuable. Professional development should be meaningful, impactful, and easily transferable to the classroom, regardless if you are a first-year teacher or a seasoned educator. Lavinia Group partners with schools and programs across the country to rapidly improve instructional practice in math and literacy using research-based methods to accelerate student learning.

Teachers still value high-impact professional learning opportunities.
Teacher workload is heavier than ever before. However, surveys from across the country show teachers still feel high-impact professional development should be a high priority for school leaders in order to accelerate learning and make up for lost time in the classroom.
Asynchronous Learning Format for Flexible, Continuous PD
Amidst the ever-growing teacher shortage, teachers need flexible professional development options and continuous development opportunities throughout the course of the school year to accelerate student learning.
With Lavinia Group’s interactive and immersive professional development courses, school leaders and teachers can enroll in asynchronous courses and progress through four learning modules at their own pace.
With our Learning Community Pathway, teachers still have flexibility with access to the asynchronous learning modules throughout the course of the school year. They’ll also join other teachers for synchronous learning opportunities with peers during live, discussion and practice-based workshops.
