Teacher Effectiveness and Educational Leadership

World Education is dedicated to improving the lives of the poor through education, and economic and social development programs.

Several studies have established that teachers’ content knowledge and competence drive student success. Teacher effectiveness, in turn, is greatly affected by the program’s educational leadership that sets the school culture, and recruits, orients, and supports teachers.

World Education helps program directors learn how to design and implement effective adult education programs that enable teachers to help adult learners meet their educational, family, career, and personal goals. World Education helps educators increase their effectiveness with online resources, professional development, and customized technical assistance.
