CESA 2 offers districts custom professional learning to grow Universal Design for Learning (UDL) mindsets, practices, and implementation.  The UDL framework is based on brain research to build expert learners that are purposeful, strategic, and resourceful. We use the capacity building framework to to move districts to deeper levels of UDL implementation:

• Aware:  Introduction to the UDL mindsets and framework
• Understand: Proactive designing with standard-based goals, predicable variabilities, and dismantling barriers for learners
• Practice: Implementing and coaching sessions
• Refine: PLC implementation, grading practices and feedback
• Teach: Strategic sustainability in systems and structures to support continuous UDL mindsets and practices
