NESA Fall Training Institute 2018

Venue: American Community School, Amman, Jordan

Continuous adult learning that impacts continuous student learning.


The FTI is a learning experience for teachers based on an "extended institute design": delegates are together with the same presenter for the entire two-days. This format allows time for skill development, in-depth exploration and the formation of partnerships/networks.

The FTI supports educators in a powerful stance of inquiry, growth mindset, practice and reflection.
