The Leading with SEL – Educators & Classrooms course focuses on building safe, supportive, and emotionally responsive learning environments where both teachers and students can thrive. The program introduces educators to the core principles of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL), including self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making. Participants gain practical strategies to integrate SEL into everyday classroom practices and curriculum while also learning the importance of educator well-being and self-care. Drawing on global perspectives, including Finland’s widely recognized approaches to student well-being and engagement, the course provides hands-on activities, reflective practices, and actionable tools that help educators create positive classroom cultures and effectively support students’ academic and personal development.
