Teamship helps students learn about and practice collaboration, problem-solving, and how to communicate effectively with a variety of stakeholders, all key skills employers are looking for in their future talent. The Coaching Institute does a phenomenal job of preparing educators to guide their students through this process... I highly recommend this program to all educators who are looking for real world opportunities and work-based learning for their students.

[The District C Coaching Institute] was transformational and absolutely intense. I’ve been an educator for 20 years, and I can say I’ve never experienced something quite like that.
— Chad Keister, teacher at North Carolina School of Science & Math
[Teamship] coached us on how to identify team members’ strengths and weaknesses to create a safe yet efficient team dynamic. We learned how to get a problem, widen out our scope and try to look at it from multiple perspectives, and then come down really deep and hard and try to solve that issue. That’s something we don’t learn in school.
