TESTIMONIALS

What our learners say about us

These courses helped me to identify goals and some specific actions that are important to my work.  I appreciated the facilitators' knowledge and expertise.
H. Atkinson, Head of School
AISH's Leadership Series is very effective in improving skills. The course was great.  I have taken away a number of important things - and am changing the things I do as a result.

Frequently asked questions

Who are the courses for?

The courses are for Heads and Deputy Heads of School, aspiring Heads, and other school leaders.

May we take the course as a leadership team?

Yes, in fact, we encourage collaboration in all of our Impact courses. While the courses were developed “for Heads by Heads” of International Schools, we find the content is applicable to all school leaders. To take the course as a team, is a powerful way to learn and move a school forward. 
If you are interested in taking the course as a team, please contact office@academyish.org for a team discount.

Can I work at my own time and pace?

The Skills courses are done at your own time and pace. You register once and then have access to all six courses. 

The Impact courses are for a month in duration and start and end on the same date. A course facilitator will guide you through weekly reading and discussion that can be done at your own pace and time during the time frame that the course is open.

Why should I take an AISH Leadership Series Course?

The Leadership Skills courses are for leaders committed to continuous improvement and honing their skills. Mapped to the AISH Standards and Threads, each course addresses a critical issue identified by International Heads of School.

Specifically, participants will enhance their current practice and have the flexibility to learn at a time and place that works for their individual schedules.
