Using Virtual Platforms to Amplify Local Voices & Reimagine What’s Possible in Professional Development

Canopy Ed helps school districts, and other education organizations, use virtual platforms to reimagine their approach to professional development. Our approach is unique because we work in partnership with districts to co-create virtual PD courses that are aligned to a district’s unique priorities. Professional development experiences that used to be confined to specific rooms during specific times can now be accessed by any teacher at any time. School and district leadership can then utilize detailed analytics on teacher learning and reflections to inform ongoing coaching and support while also saving valuable time that used to be spent replicating PDs across the district. Partners can also earn revenue by licensing these virtual courses to districts and other education organizations.
