Service Overview
NIET provides ongoing implementation support for high-quality ELA and math curricula, including Wit & Wisdom, MyPerspectives, Amplify ELA, i-Ready Classroom Mathematics, and Eureka Math. We strengthen educator practice through job-embedded coaching, collaborative planning, and professional learning aligned to each program. We also build leadership capacity to support instructional excellence through coaching and data-informed decision-making. Our services ensure teachers and leaders can effectively implement curriculum, meet diverse student needs, and sustain high-quality instruction across classrooms and schools.
Building District Capacity
NIET strengthens district capacity for HQIM implementation by integrating high-quality materials into professional learning systems and instructional practices, including lesson design, classroom implementation, and teacher collaboration. We focus on developing both teachers and leaders, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to effectively adopt and sustain HQIM. Through job-embedded coaching, professional learning communities, and individual feedback, we help educators refine instructional strategies for HQIM. NIET’s comprehensive approach fosters collaborative learning, grounds feedback in research-based best practices, and directly improves teaching practices and student outcomes through targeted support and alignment of instructional strategies.
Addressing Equity
NIET’s professional learning services are designed to ensure that all educators have access to the training, resources, and support needed to implement high-quality instruction effectively. By providing data-driven coaching, targeted professional learning, and evidence-based strategies, we help educators meet the diverse needs of their students, particularly those who face greater learning challenges. This approach strengthens instructional effectiveness and expands opportunities for all students to succeed.
