Más que un programa, se trata de una experiencia de inmersión de cuatro días en la educación del carácter.
We invite leadership teams to spend a few days together, in a climate of trust, reflecting and dialoguing about what can make their schools places where character development is promoted in a strategic and intentional way.
Knowing the fundamentals of effective character education
We will use the PRIMED model, developed by Professor Marvin W. Berkowitz, as a guide to introduce attendees to an effective perspective for addressing the transformation of the educational center. Those leading this change need to understand the principles that underpin the practices they will later implement.
Build-up team relationships through experiential learning
Implementing a change of this magnitude, which directly affects the culture of the community, requires a united team eager to take on this ambitious challenge. During the Institute, attendees will have the opportunity to bond with their fellow team members, share many hours of conversation and enjoy a good time together.
Develop an action plan for the next academic year
With the knowledge gained from the PRIMED model, attendees are invited to make an action plan for the next academic year. This kind of transformation requires several years of work. The plan developed as a result of these days can serve to open the way and introduce the perspective of character education in their communities. Participants will be mentored by the PRIMED facilitators.
Audience
The PRIMED Institute is for leadership teams of educational centers. It is recommended that principals or directors attend with their leadership team. However, it is also possible for teams to attend, even if their leader is missing.
Certification
Those who complete the program can receive certification from Become, the Center for Character and Citizenship at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, and the Group Education, Citizenship and Character at the University of Navarra.
Upcoming Events
We want to serve leaders to build communities where everyone can grow.
