Your substitutes will be ready on day one
8 Hours of Instruction
Our training is very specific, relevant, applicable, and practical. The guesswork of classroom behavior has been removed. There are specific skills that avoid or eliminate 94% of all behavior problems with strategies to handle the remaining 6%.
Assessments
We test them on their substitute teaching skills. You don’t have to. They must pass with an 85% or better. They will then earn their SubDiploma while demonstrating a knowledge of:
- Classroom management
- Teaching strategies
- Being prepared and professional
- Taking assignments in special education
- Legal and educational aspects of teaching
- Appropriate use of fill-in activities
- How to avoid common teaching traps
Year-Long Advice
Your subs will receive our SubSuggestions newsletter every other week and training videos. The follow-up for SubSkills is beyond that newsletter and specific to SubSkills graduates. Effective professional development is not a one-and-done, it’s ongoing and relevant.
Diploma
After passing the SubAssessment, they will receive a SubDiploma. This proves they understand the material presented in the course.
The SubDiploma is a printable PDF certificate. We encourage the substitute to add it to their resume and let the school district know of their academic accomplishment.
