Experience-Based Learning

Finding qualified educators can be a challenge, especially in high-demand subject areas. Experience-Based Licensing (EBL) offers a practical solution, allowing schools to hire skilled professionals from various industries who bring real-world expertise into the classroom. By leveraging EBL, schools can fill critical teaching positions while ensuring students receive high-quality, career-relevant education.

Our experts collaborate with educators to develop a personalized roadmap for success, providing supportive, non-evaluative coaching and constructive feedback in a safe, growth-focused environment. We offer just-in-time (JIT) resources that teachers can access as needed, along with opportunities for networking and connections — including linking schools with eligible singletons — to foster collaboration and professional growth.
