SELEQUITY™ Professional Development

Adult SEL & Equity training and professional development for greater impact

It All Starts with Your Staff

Investing in Educators is the key to success

Decades of experience and research prove that SEL can be taught and modeled, but must also be intentionally practiced. What makes 7 Mindsets different from other SEL providers is that it nurtures the mindsets of both students and educators.

Oftentimes, educators are the most influential people in the lives of their students. Their innate ability to inspire and motivate their students sometimes comes at the expense of their own well-being. Educator self-care and enrichment are critical for their ongoing success and happiness.

7 Mindsets provides the most engaging and effective SEL & Equity professional development model to build teacher efficacy, buy in, and mass adoption in PK-12 education.

“This was HANDS-DOWN the BEST training I have ever had the pleasure of attending! It was informative/educational, got me pumped for the new year, and downright heartfelt! Can all of our training be like this?”

Introduction for Professional and Personal Application

The introductory professional development builds excitement around the 7 Mindsets. Through engaging videos, stories, and activities, educators and leaders are able to connect with the 7 Mindsets at a personal level while building foundational knowledge of the benefit and value of social emotional learning. This initial training inspires educators to reflect on their own stories and connect with their peers in meaningful ways. Paired with instructional practices to facilitate lessons in the classroom, educators learn strategies to engage students in discussion and build healthy connections in the classroom. This session consistently dispels the “not another thing” mentality pervasive when new initiatives are introduced by demonstrating the importance of SEL in the classroom, and building teacher advocacy among your team.

Ridiculously Amazing Schools

The Ridiculously Amazing Schools workshop is an expansion of the Amazon Best-Selling book written by Tracey Smith (Principal, Brookwood Elementary, Forsyth County Schools) and Jeff Waller (VP Education, 7 Mindsets.) It offers proven strategies to build deep relationships and connections among education teams based on research and real world application. Teams are most effective and productive when teachers feel a sense of belonging, trust, and significance among their peers. Learn strategies to engage educators, streamline organizational efficacy, and a practical solution and road map to drive real and meaningful change within the school and classroom.

Equity in Education Introduction

Now more than ever it is imperative for educators to engage students in conversations that celebrate the beauty of diversity. Through evidence-based strategies, educators and administrators learn the core components of JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion) practices to understand the value and importance of diversity and develop a culture of inclusion. Through reflective exercises, educators begin to manage bias thinking and behaviors that impact the experiences of others. Learn the strategies to embed equity into the classroom and teach students how to use their privilege to “do good”.

Deeper Than Diversity

Going deeper than diversity builds authentic and equitable relationships that creates engaging, courageous, and meaningful conversations. The session unpacks the key elements for building authentic relationships and applies the lessons to our work in schools. Core concepts include proximity, frequency, reciprocity, knowledge, and imagination. Educators create a foundation for important ideas like bridging the empathy gap, understanding the diversity deception, going beyond episodic contact, and recognizing the power of intent versus impact. Through live music and storytelling, this engaging session stimulates empathy and activates the imagination needed to transform our educational environments.

Parent Night and Community Partnership

The relationship between the school educators and leaders, and parents is an essential component to a thriving community. The 7 Mindsets professional development team offers engaging sessions to inspire parents and extend the common language of the 7 Mindsets to the home and community. The sessions build the foundation for greater community involvement through shared experiences and healthy connections, to provide shared accountability and support for students.
