UVEI programs differ from traditional schools of education. Rather than emphasizing content and class time, our programs emphasize learning in actual schools and classrooms, work with mentors and coaches, and relevant and applied seminars.
Focus on Outcomes
For almost half a century, our mission has been to prepare, inspire and support teachers and school leaders to improve the quality of education for learners and their classrooms, schools, and communities. A steadfast focus on what an educator must know and be able to do—is the heart of the UVEI approach.
UVEI partners with school communities to engage, inspire, and challenge educators, developing their ability to make classrooms and schools places where all people belong and thrive.
