The program provides 15 continuing education quarter units (equivalent to 10 semester units) over six months and enables participants to meet immediate remote/hybrid teaching challenges while also preparing for the major educational shifts to come.

"Supporting educators is our core mission. KCI has been innovating educational practices for the past 20 years, and that shows in the lives of the thousands of teachers--and subsequently hundreds of thousands of students-- that we have impacted," says Gay Krause, Executive Director and Founder at the Krause Center for Innovation. "When it comes to online and blended learning, challenges of equity and access have always been a central issue. All of this was thrust into the spotlight when the pandemic hit, and now, more than ever, we can see the impact that these inequalities are having on our students who need us the most."
