The signature model of The Teacher Collaborative is the Co-Lab, which is designed to be “By Teachers, For Teachers.”  In these sustained groups, teachers with common interests collaborate, innovate, and problem-solve together, often creating shareable resources to offer to the broader community.

All Teacher Collaborative programs offer Professional Development Points (PDPs), and many offer honorariums and graduate credit to honor the time and contributions of participants.  Many of our programs are selective and require an application. Most programs are held online, as most are open to all educators across Massachusetts, we offer some in-person events as well.
