About the Series

Starting in July 2021, the Center on Great Teachers and Leaders (GTL Center) hosted a three-part webinar series, Beyond Selection and Hiring, offering practical solutions for strengthening and diversifying the educator workforce. In this series, discover free, user-friendly tools and GIS mapping to confront systemic inequities across the educator career continuum and change our systems—not just to recruit more teachers of color, but also to dismantle the inequitable and exclusionary practices that push teachers of color out of classrooms in the first place.
