Professional Learning Group Facilitator Training
August 6-8, 2019
Great Schools Partnership Office
482 Congress Street, Suite 500
Portland, Maine 04101
Professional learning groups (PLGs) provide dedicated and supported time during which educators like you can evaluate student work, tune assessments and plans, and engage in constructive dialogue with peer educators. PLGs that have at least one trained facilitator spend time more wisely, stay focused on learning, and nurture a community devoted to continuous improvement.
Don’t have a trained facilitator? No problem. The Great Schools Partnership provides comprehensive, three-day training sessions for PLG facilitators.
Our experienced trainers can help you:
- Develop trusting relationships and a shared commitment to growth among colleagues.
- Use protocols to examine student and teacher work.
- Give and receive supportive, productive feedback focused on instructional improvement.
- Initiate and engage in an ongoing cycle of action using data, observation, and narrative.
- Effectively utilize PLG facilitation and leadership skills in a wide variety of professional settings
Pricing
The cost of our PLG training is $495 per person.
We encourage school teams to register, although individuals may also register without a team.
Your registration fee includes:
- Direct support from a Great Schools Partnership coach

- A light breakfast and lunch each day (and an endless supply of coffee!)
