The K-12 Reality
Four Challenges Every District Administrator Knows
CE Compliance Falls Through the Cracks
School-based PT, OT, and SLP staff are often contracted or part-time — CE compliance falls through the cracks without a central platform to manage it.
Mental Health Demands Are Rising
Mental health demands on school counselors, social workers, and psychologists have never been higher — their professional development often comes last.
PD Days Need to Deliver Real Value
District-wide PD Days are one of the few times your whole team is together — they need to be high-quality, relevant, and earn CEUs.
Turnover Costs Real Money
Turnover among school-based therapists is costly — an engaged clinician with a clear development path stays; one without moves to private practice.
