Aperture Launches Free SEL Workshops

Aperture Education, which provides social and emotional learning (SEL) tools for K–12, has launched a new series of free workshops for educators focused on key competencies of SEL.

According to Aperture: "Each workshop provides an overview of one of the competencies, plus strategies that teachers, school counselors, and SEL coordinators can use to help students strengthen each competency. Participants collaborate to create action plans to use in their school, district, or organization."

The workshops will be held on a monthly basis. Registrants can also view the workshops on demand. The latest workshop is being held today.
