2026 Instructional Coaching Institute is NOW OPEN!
What is the Instructional Coaching Institute?
The Edu20/20 Instructional Coaching Institute delivers a practical, logistical system for instructional coaches and leaders who want measurable results in their schools and districts.
If you are overwhelmed by the demands of instructional coaching, struggling to maintain consistency, or dealing with a lot of resistance in your district, then this training is the relief you’re looking for.
This training involves a two-day cover-to-cover book study of Jill Jackson’s How To Coach Teachers To Teach (Almost) Anything. We’ll navigate such topics as coaching styles, dealing with resistance, and how to implement a manageable, logistical system for instructional coaching.
Coaches and leaders will walk away with the tools to focus on what actually moves instruction and support teachers in ways that lead to measurable results.
*This training aligns to Louisiana expectations for teacher evaluations and coaching plans.
Build Skills That Strengthen Instructional Coaching
Instructional coaching works best when it’s focused, intentional, and grounded in what actually impacts classroom instruction. In this institute, you’ll build practical, high-impact skills that help you prioritize your time, lead effective coaching conversations, and support teachers in ways that translate directly to the classroom. Here’s what that looks like in practice:
✅ How to set a principal’s instructional goal
✅ How to differentiate coaching time, focus and approach based upon individual teacher needs
✅ How to approach teachers for coaching without feeling awkward or evaluative
✅ How to have a debriefing that results in action that sticks long term
✅ How to build real trust without wasting time building buy-in
✅ …and a whole list of other super practical skills!

Edu20/20 is the ONLY provider of in-depth training on Jill Jackson’s coaching methods, and it’s now available for your entire team in one place.
If you want your district coaches and leaders to experience this training together, on your timeline, we’ll bring the Instructional Coaching Institute directly to you. Instead of sending individuals off-site or trying to piece together learning across different sessions, your team engages in a shared experience that builds alignment from the start.
This format allows you to focus on what matters most in your schools while ensuring every coach and leader is working from the same framework, language, and expectations. It’s a practical, efficient way to strengthen coaching across your district without adding unnecessary complexity or pulling people too far from their day-to-day responsibilities.
Throughout the training, your team will consistently connect the work back to your schools, making it easier to apply the framework in a way that fits your district’s current priorities and feels relevant, focused, and immediately actionable.
