Our Virtual Summer Training Institute is later this month!   Rob Kodama and young women he has coached over the last decades will provide a unique workshop. To join this workshop, learn more about our Summer Training Institute, and to register, click here:  https://gurianinstitute.com/events/gurian-summer-institute-2025/.

Because each keynote and workshop is recorded, registrants can watch the pre-service workshops before the event, and watch all keynote and workshop recordings after, as well.  For groups of 5 or more or 20 or more, contact Dakota Hoyt, our Managing Director, for pricing and registration.  Also please reach out to her if you would like to become a Certified Trainer at our SI.  Now here’s more about the event and Rob’s workshop.

In the past, schools and districts sending large groups have sometimes used the recorded keynotes and workshops for school based viewing and discussion on weekdays during the summer rather than on the June weekend.  If you would like to take advantage of this opportunity for your school or group, let Dakota know at info@gurianinstitute.com.

To explore becoming a Certified Gurian Trainer at our Summer Institute, please read the Trainer page on www.gurianinstitute.com.  If those logistics, costs, and benefits look good to you, let Dakota know.  The extra four hour certification session will be led by our Program Director, Dr. Glynetta Fletcher on Monday morning, 8 – noon, June 23, 2025. We hope that every school involved in this work will certify a Trainer so that the work can continue at the school during the school year.

Here’s more about Rob’s powerful workshop.

Coaching and Teaching Girls for Leadership, with Rob Kodama, Gurian Master Trainer and Young Women from Teams

We have asked Rob Kodama and some of the young women he has coached to present a workshop on strategies for coaching and educating girls at the Middle and High School level.  These are the levels at which girls increasingly have more male teachers and coaches.  This workshop is for everyone, with best practices that work across the lifespan, and it is especially for men teaching, coaching, and educating girls and young women.  A dynamic and inspiring presenter, Rob has been with the Gurian Institute for twenty years.  After twenty five years in the classroom, he is now working at Vidigami (which he will mention in the workshop).  He has coached girls soccer successfully for thirty four years.  Some of the young female leaders he has taught and coached will join him in this workshop.

Thank you for your support of our events over the years.  We hope to see you later this month!
