Center for Teacher Effectiveness is seeking a Professional Development Trainer for a hybrid role in California, including San Francisco, Oakland, Daly City, San Mateo and Berkeley. You will train K-12 staff on classroom management, working with schools in-person or remotely.
The position is a 1099 independent contractor with no guaranteed hours. Trainers typically earn $1,000+ per training day, with pay every Friday, and most trainings arranged after certification.
This trainer role is hybrid. Some days you're in a school library with its teachers, and some days you're leading the same session over video from home. We're adding trainers in San Francisco, Oakland, Daly City, San Mateo, and Berkeley.
The training is classroom management for K-12 schools, delivered to whole staffs or smaller groups of teachers. The Center for Teacher Effectiveness has offered it since 1993, and more than 400,000 educators in all 50 states have taken part.
It's a 1099 independent contractor position without guaranteed hours. How often you train depends on the year and on the schools you reach. Trainers usually earn $1,000 or more for each training day, and payday is every Friday.
You'll book most of your trainings yourself by getting in touch with schools, using what certification teaches about outreach. After a school says yes, your National Director prepares the contract and negotiates it. There are no territories, so a school across the bay and one in another state are equally open to you.
Certification comes first, and it's online too: the Weekend Certification, 36 hours across three days on two weekends. It earns 4 graduate credits through UMass Global, and it comes with an orientation, the training materials, and ongoing support.
We're looking for current and former K-12 teachers, as well as coaches, counselors, and principals. Many of our trainers hold school jobs and train on evenings, weekends, personal days, and over the summer. Students are welcome to apply when they plan to complete certification.
