Created in partnership with Digital Promise, this live-virtual RocketPD cohort experience provides a unique opportunity for school and district leaders — alongside teachers, instructional coaches, and special education professionals — to engage deeply with research-based strategies for learner variability. Rather than one-off trainings or generic PD, this cohort supports sustained, collaborative learning: participants will engage with peers, examine real-world learner profiles, apply high-leverage instructional strategies, and plan systemic changes aligned with the needs of neurodiverse learners. This is especially important at a time when districts face growing learner variability, widening gaps in engagement, and the need for inclusive, strength-based practices.

Over the course of five live-virtual sessions, participants will:

• Collaborate in structured learning conversations on learner variability, whole-child design, and inclusive instruction.
• Gain access to the RocketPD Learning Portal, where sessions are recorded and available for a limited time.
• Receive a cohort workbook and LVN-aligned planning templates — practical tools for instructional redesign.
• Leave with a “District Action Plan” or classroom-level implementation roadmap designed to support all learners.

This cohort is ideal for a team-based or individual registration from across a school or district. Participants might include: classroom teachers, special education teachers/coordinators, instructional coaches, principals, assistant principals, curriculum & instruction directors, MTSS leads, PD coordinators, and district leadership teams. Whether you’re looking to build inclusive classrooms, reimagine IEPs, or launch a district-wide variability strategy — this cohort supports you.

Unlike traditional PD that treats variability as an exception, this cohort frames variability as the norm — and offers a research-backed pathway to build inclusive, flexible instruction. Engaging with Digital Promise’s Learner Variability Navigator (LVN) and strength-based, whole-child frameworks, your team will:
Define what strength-based, inclusive instruction looks like in your context

• Build practical systems and workflows to support diverse learners
• Align special education, general classroom instruction, and district-level planning to meet every learner’s needs
• Begin implementing high-leverage strategies immediately — whether in individual classrooms or across the district
