At a Glance
At each local site, one Coach will lead a small group (between 10 and 12) of ELI Fellows through a 6-month curriculum designed to (1) help them identify a local issue for Early Career Educators; (2) research the problem and identify affiliate-based opportunities for a solution; and (3) create a plan to propose to the local association for how to address the issue. The Coach also helps ELI Fellows engage local association leaders and stakeholders; participate in local leadership meetings; and attend a statewide leadership event.
