How intensive is the training Institute?
Candidates should be aware that the training Institute schedule will be rigorous with many long days. You can expect a 40-50 hour week among practice teaching, curriculum Framework Sessions, and university coursework. We try to compress as much hands-on experience and concrete skills and strategies that we can into a brief 6-7 week period so that Fellows have what they need to be effective in their classrooms immediately.
