Good Afternoon, 

I hope you are doing well.  Registration for Cohort 4 of Rethink Education closes this Friday.  Your school has a total of 5 spots for educators.  Please let me know if you have any questions about registration.  If you give participants the registration form link directly, please EMAIL me their name(s) confirming that they have been selected as one of your 5 spots.  

Here is the link to the Registration Request Form.

  • Participants will receive email confirmation of their enrollment in the NCEES/CANVAS course within a week from the receipt of this form. 
  • You may submit this form multiple times. 
  • Please select educators who understand the rigor of the course including both synchronous and asynchronous components to avoid withdrawals from the cohort due to the limited number of spots available.

The deadline for registration is September 29, 2023. If you do NOT submit this form by September 29, your spots will be offered to another PSU with a waiting list of participants.  You may nominate up to 5 educators to participate in Rethink Education Cohort 4. Before submitting nominations, you may want to inform educators there are rigorous synchronous and asynchronous requirements in this program. Here is the Cohort 4 Pacing Guide which can be helpful to show the scope of the course.  Upon receiving submissions, we will send your nominated educators an email confirming their registration in the NCESS/CANVAS course.


If you have more than 5 interested educators, please utilize the waitlist form at the end of the registration form. Waitlist spots will be given BASED ON THE ORDER THE WAITLIST FORM IS RECEIVED. On October 2, 2023, we will reach out to those districts with surplus interest and inform them of additional spots, if available.

I am excited to partner with your district to support blended learning implementation.  Please let me know if you have any questions.  Take care - Kristine
