May 1, 2015

Make the right hiring decision and your students benefit. But hiring is tough and often decisions are based on instinct. Go beyond a list of questions to a systematic, research-based approach to a strategic interviewing process. Principals report that using the structured protocol makes more efficient use of their interview time and supports the interview team in identifying the top applicants (Hanson, 2009). This interactive professional development offering provides tools to support instructional leaders in hiring the best. This session is ideal for teams of principals attending with their human resources director.
Facilitated by:
- Jennifer Hindman, Ph.D., Author of Effective Teacher Interviews, Co-author of The Teacher Quality Index: A Protocol for Teacher Selection (ASCD)
