Empowering Educators for Excellence
As the academic year draws to a close, schools across the nation engage with the question of how to allocate remaining resources effectively. With so many pressing needs buzzing for attention, schools are looking to strategize their leftover funds appropriately, and investing in teacher training stands out as a paramount choice. At EdQuiddity, we offer solutions that allow schools to stretch their funding dollars with our innovative Professional Learning Experiences (PLEs) and Virtual Learning Communities (VLCs), designed to empower educators and maximize the impact of every educational dollar to have a lasting impact on your district beyond this school year.
Virtual Professional Development Opportunities
EdQuiddity’s virtual professional development and upskilling is to enhance your school’s “whatness”! Our mission is to provide schools with transformational, convenient, participant-driven opportunities that cater to educators every need. Our work is inspired by our founder, Dr. Nancy Sulla, the creator of the Learner-Active, Technology-Infused ClassroomTM and a thought leader in designing remote/hybrid learning environments. Nancy is president and founder of IDE Corp., an educational consulting firm and our partner in providing educators with virtual resources and professional learning opportunities.
Professional Learning Experiences (PLEs)
Our PLEs are tailored to enhance every facet of the teaching profession, from full-staff meetings to classroom observations. By fueling PLC meetings and complementing them with crosswalks to common teacher evaluation frameworks, our PLEs elevate instructional practices and foster collaborative growth. We also recognize the crucial role of parents/guardians in the learning process and offer strategies to integrate them seamlessly into the educational journey. With in-house PD sessions during staff-development days and round-the-clock access to a wealth of learning resources, we cultivate a culture of continuous improvement at an unprecedented value. Utilize your remaining funds to enroll your entire staff and administration for just $99 per login, and let us transform your school into a hub of innovation. Our PLE topics include:
- Executive Function and SEL
- Supporting English Language Learners (ELLs)
- Equity
- Maximizing Student Achievement
- PBL
- Differentiation
Virtual Learning Communities (VLCs)
Our Virtual Learning Communities (VLCs) offer a dynamic alternative to traditional online courses. Led by experienced facilitators, each VLC provides a platform for educators to engage, collaborate, and innovate. Purchasing VLC seats is a smart use of funds. Once they are purchased for staff members, seats can be used for up to two years after the purchase date. Our VLC course schedule changes each season, providing teachers with a multitude of opportunities.
Unlike passive learning experiences, our VLCs model innovative practices, equipping teachers with tangible skills and materials to implement in their classrooms immediately. With flexible scheduling and comprehensive support, including 25 hours of self-paced engagement and interactive video-conference sessions, our VLCs empower educators to challenge their pedagogical thinking and drive meaningful change. For just $595 per seat or $4,950 for a 10-pack, cultivate a culture of professional development and unleash the full potential of your teaching staff. Below is a list of our 2024 summer offerings:

In this course, participants will leverage choice and technology to provide students with the ultimate differentiated learning environment. They will develop differentiated digital activity lists rooted in rigorous instruction that offer multiple ways to learn and apply content. Participants will explore autonomy, purpose, and mastery as motivators in all learning environments. They will design differentiated activity lists to put students in charge of their own learning, creating a structure that allows students to make decisions within a structured framework. Making informed decisions is an essential life skill that teachers can support with intentional classroom practices.
