Other Professional Learning Opportunities
CAIS schools are leaders in education. Many of our schools develop programs for educators, and we encourage you to check out these opportunities in our sections below.
Additionally, from time to time, CAIS promotes Professional Learning opportunities led by credible organizations with missions and values that are aligned with CAIS.
CAIS School Conferences & PL Opportunities
The ISEEN Summer Teacher Institute fuses rigorous academic disciplines with deep thinking about the cognitive learning process through the experiential learning cycle. This professional development opportunity is for teachers who want to delve deeper into experiential education and reflective teaching practices while immersed in experiential and place-based activities on the front range of Colorado. Whereas the ISEEN Winter Institute is an annual gathering for administrators to stay up to date with current thinking on experiential education practices and trends, the Summer Institute brings experiential education to the classroom in a practical, curriculum-based, and supportive environment led by master teacher facilitators from schools around North America.
The LCS Summer AI Institute — The Skills That Matter is a professional development experience for teachers and school leaders looking to explore the role of artificial intelligence in education. Be part of this collaborative exchange of ideas and solutions, where participants will learn from one another and discover effective ways to integrate AI into the learning process. Expect to walk away with fresh strategies, broadened perspectives, and meaningful ways to embed the skills that matter into your educational community.
