Ongoing Support

As part of our overarching body of training, we offer ongoing support to those who have become certified in Ellen Tadd’s Framework for Weiss education®. Depending on the level of certification, one is eligible to receive different types of ongoing support.

Those who have completed Foundations-1 and are a certified Framework Trainee are welcome to join our monthly Peer-learning Symposiums.

For those who have completed Fondaions-2 and are thus a certified Framework Practitioner, we offer one-on-one supervision and site visits to your facility/school/classroom.

Monthly Peer Learning Symposiums

Monthly symposiums provide graduates of our courses an opportunity to stay connected to one another and practice what they have learned. The peer-to-peer learning at these virtual community gatherings builds on the partner and group work conducted in our training. It provides real-time insight and suggestions about applying the Framework. 

To support the learning process, a Framework Facilitator oversees all symposiums. However, these gatherings are primarily opportunities for community building and peer learning.
