Who Should Attend Our Educator Event
Anyone with a love for learning, openness and curiosity is welcome at Conscious Discipline events. When educators and parents are unified, children thrive. This education event welcomes both on the path to better skills in care and education.
One of the core tenets of the Conscious Discipline methodology is that climate and culture impacts all achievement. Cultivating an environment that is optimal for all involved results in what we call the School Family.
At the Conscious Discipline Institute, attendees and instructors get the opportunity to build their own School Family. This means you are committed to learning, shifting old perspectives and connecting with others to pursue a brighter tomorrow for ourselves and our kiddos. At our education events, you can expect to walk away with newfound hope and joy for what you do, as well as new friendships and support systems, a better understanding of the minds and hearts of young children, and how to implement learning strategies that foster safety and connection for years to come.
For over 25 years, Conscious Discipline has empowered educators and parents through transformative events, including teacher conferences, workshops, and institutes.
We welcome beginners and returning School Family alums alike! We are always happy to have you!
It doesn’t matter if you’ve never been to a Conscious Discipline event or if you’ve been to a dozen; there’s something for you at each one. Regardless of where you are in your academic career or as a caregiver, we guarantee renewed mindsets, opportunities to demonstrate new skills, and a growing system of support that lasts long after the event is over.
We can’t wait to see you there.
