Schools and educational organizations are challenged to raise test scores -- and raise healthy and whole people. Fortunately, emotional intelligence helps with both.
With over 40 years of experience in social-emotional learning, Six Seconds helps schools and education programs measurably improve their outcomes through training, consulting, and tools:
Measure and improve school climate to create an optimal learning environment.
Deliver social-emotional education -- measure and improve students' competence -- so youth are self-aware and self-motivated.
Enhance professional development with a range of emotional intelligence training programs that help educators become even more effective.
Six Seconds also provides certification training to educators and educational leaders to use our emotional intelligence curricula and assessments for children and adults.
