Why Do Coaches Need a Coach?
There is a "professionl development gap" that seems to happen for instructional coaches - the gap between the expectations of, and the support for, the coaching role.
The Coach Microcredential mentors, Kim and Diana discuss and share their insights about "the gap" and how instructional coaches are impacted.
Get a glimpse of the kinds of conversations our mentors are having in our YouTube series about instructional coaching. As a participant in The Coach Microcredential, you’ll be joining this community of international technology coaches, and participating in these types of deep learning conversations.
