College and Career Readiness Workshops
(Formerly Educator Workshops)ACT invites you to attend one of over 270 newly redesigned College and Career Readiness Workshops this fall where the focus will be on improving every student's college and career readiness. Each member of your education team—school counselor, lead teacher, curriculum director, principal, and superintendent—will gain an understanding of how ACT tools can provide the information and data schools and districts need to support the success of every student.
Workshop Highlights
The College and Career Readiness Workshops will focus on the role of each team member in utilizing data as the foundation for building systems of excellence. Each workshop will include an in-depth look at the types of information available to every school district and will also provide engaging activities focused on:
- Sharing student-level and aggregate data across the team, school, and district
- Translating data into actionable information
- Integrating data as a foundation for supporting student growth
- Include Peer Group Roundtables
- Provide each team member with specific resources customized to his or her role
