The 4 step Roadmap
to Empowered Educators
From selecting and training facilitators to providing comprehensive resources and ongoing guidance, this roadmap ensures teams are fully prepared to create lasting, meaningful change—without the extra workload.
Step 1
Choose Your Champions
We help you identify the leaders within your school that will be best positioned to serve as internal facilitators. This core team kicks off with a foundational FuelEd training, designed to build their self-awareness and essential relationship skills, making them not only better teachers and leaders but prime champions for Growing Empathy.
Step 2
Immersive Orientation
Following foundational training, your team is ready for their orientation, a 6-hour session designed to equip facilitators with the knowledge and confidence to lead Growing Empathy. Orientation includes comprehensive guidance on the program’s structure and objectives, live training to build facilitation skills, and planning support for implementation in your school or district.
Step 3
Rapid Rollout
Following orientation, your team of facilitators is ready to lead Growing Empathy in your school. They are provided with all the materials they need to roll out 8-hours of in-house training, inclusive of four 10-15 minute animated, instructional videos which serve as an engaging centerpiece of each training session.
Step 4
Access Your Learning Platform
Your team has continued access to an expertly designed online learning platform where they can revisit and access Growing Empathy instructional resources anytime, making implementation stress-free and efficient, and enabling your leaders to focus on engaging your staff and building a culture of empathy with minimal effort.

Testimonials
Every teacher should take advantage of this training. It is completely beneficial to know what empathy is and what it isn't. This also will greatly help with understanding my students

What I've accomplished in being an effective leader was not by mistake. FuelEd helped me understand the power of empathy and how it can empower others.
Jorge Cardenas
Senior Director, School Leadership at 3DE Schools
FuelEd's focus on relationships is critical to student success, and often an overlooked or assumed aspect of teacher training. I am so thankful FuelEd is in the national conversation.
