Workshops
What is it like when Rachel does professional learning with you and your organization?
I believe that all training is learner-centered. That means that I work to create training that is engaging, creative, fun, and most important: transferrable to your work.
Every training includes opportunities to practice and get hands-on with the work. Whether we’re talking about design thinking or Google Classroom, you can be sure that you will have plenty of chances to try out what we are learning and ask lots of questions.
I provide training in a variety of topics, and can customize any professional development for your organization.
