Who we are
TNTP, a national nonprofit founded by teachers, knows the fundamental problem facing our schools isn’t the achievement gap—it’s the opportunity gap. We recognize high quality instructional materials as a critical driver of academic opportunity and believe that consistently providing that opportunity to every student—especially those denied them due to systemic inequity—is a crucial step toward strengthening our schools and putting all students on a path to academic, economic, and social mobility.

Certifications we've received
What does this certification mean?

EL Education has partnered with select professional learning providers through a philanthropically-funded pilot certification program designed to build knowledge around the content, structure, and intent of the EL Education K-5 Language Arts curriculum. In the final phase of the program, participants from each partner organization demonstrated expertise in facilitating curriculum-aligned professional learning in a real-world context.

Illustrative Mathematics: Professional Learning certified by Illustrative Mathematics is delivered through our IM Certified Facilitators, who undergo a rigorous qualification and training process to gain mastery in delivering impactful professional learning experiences based on the author’s intent. IM Certified Facilitators deliver learning educators need, in a variety of formats, including onsite academies and live virtual classrooms.

Open Up Resources (OUR) vets professional learning partners to guarantee OUR customers receive the highest quality professional learning. The vetting process includes a comprehensive certification process that ensures professional learning providers are OUR curricula experts with the experience necessary to provide professional learning that leads to efficacious implementation of OUR curricula.

OpenSciEd is growing a community of certified professional learning providers. OpenSciEd-Certified organizations include partners who helped to develop the materials and professional learning as well as organizations newer to OpenSciEd who have demonstrated deep understanding of the professional learning goals and pedagogy. Certified organizations collaborate and learn from each other in an online community as they work together to meet the unique needs of teachers, administrators, instructional coaches, and district leaders to revolutionize classrooms with OpenSciEd’s materials.

Why is this important?

The purpose of the Guide is to support educators in part by focusing district demand on services that are most likely to lead to the adoption and strong implementation of HQIM. By highlighting the type of clients PL providers are best designed to serve, schools and school systems can evaluate whether a particular provider would be a good fit for them.

This partner's approach and services

Sample scopes of work

Adoption

Launch

Ongoing for teachers

Leadership support
What are these sample scopes of work?

Each provider in the PLPG provides a sample scope of work for each type of professional learning they are approved for. The scopes of work represent engagements with actual clients and are intended to give users a better understanding of how the provider engages with teachers and leaders in each type of professional learning.

What are these scopes?
How we address equity
Across our services, we lead with ‘Who are our students, and what are their needs?’ We design strategies that are inclusive of all students, especially those who have been systemically and historically marginalized, and we engage with stakeholders (including students, caregivers, and teachers) throughout the process. We help educators enact high expectations for all students’ success against rigorous standards, and we support systems to evaluate the cultural responsiveness of materials, so that students have an equitable, and standards-aligned experience. Our progress monitoring efforts are designed to evaluate whether systematically and historically marginalized students have consistent, equitable access to strong instruction.
Why is this important?

High-quality professional learning supports teachers in effectively engaging all students in rigorous tasks, including students with unfinished learning, students learning English, and students with special needs.

Implicit racism plays a major role in perpetuating achievement gaps in classrooms across the country. Rivet is committed to dismantling racism by connecting educators with professional learning partners who confront implicit racism through culturally responsive services that support teachers in providing high quality instruction to all students every day.

Why is this important?
How we build district capacity
TNTP prioritizes sustainability and shared leadership in our partnerships. We intentionally build capacity across a range of system-level staff, including teachers, school leadership, and district staff (from the cabinet level to more implementation-focused staff). This includes building a common, content-specific vision for excellent instruction, and implementation planning that focuses on change management along the vertical spine of support. We design and support progress monitoring and continuous improvement systems, allowing our partners to gauge equitable access to the materials and The Opportunity Myth’s four resources so that they can reflect on their progress and continuously improve after our engagement ends.
Why is this important?

It is important for PL providers to have a gradual release plan with the schools and districts they work with. This response highlights how this provider builds capacity within a school system to effectively support the implementation of high-quality curriculum.

Why is this important?
How we provide curriculum-aligned PL

Workshops

Workshops build leader and educator content knowledge and support deep understanding of the impact and design of new materials. Workshops support educators to make mindset and practice shifts that are essential to improving the student experience, and consistently provide educators opportunities to apply what they are learning in their classrooms.

Coaching

TNTP builds capacity by prioritizing the development of the coaches within a system. Coaching support builds knowledge of research-based instructional practices, the design of high-quality materials, and preparation and reflection structures. TNTP equips coaches to shift teacher practice and mindset by focusing on effective feedback, change management, and continuous improvement.

PLCs

PLCs are critical in supporting educators’ preparation to implement new materials. TNTP focuses PLCs on using materials with “skilled fidelity”, linking the intended outcomes of the materials to the unique needs of the educators’ students. In PLCs educators deeply internalize the design of new materials and reflect on students’ progress.

Consultations

TNTP consults with district and school leadership teams to build capacity in research-based instructional practices, systems-level change management, adoption and implementation planning, and continuous improvement. Our consulting work equips leaders to support the shift to new materials in their systems and promotes the sustainability and impact of the change.
What are these approaches?

High-quality professional learning may be delivered in a variety of structures, depending on content, audience, or type of session. Rivet has defined four types of professional learning structures that enable the delivery of HQPL: workshops, coaching, collaboration/PLCs, and consultation.
