the Teaching Mastery Acceleration Program

Your Pathway to Excellence in Education

At Thrive, we’ve repeatedly seen that accelerating professional development allows educators to feel more empowered to unlock their greater potential and make a profound impact on student success. That’s why we decided to create the Teaching Mastery Acceleration Program (T-MAP).

T-MAP is designed to support and uplift B.Ed students, beginner to veteran teachers, and administrators. Created by a super crew of experienced educators, T-MAP will guide you in:

  • Refining and improving your instructional techniques.

  • Adding new teaching strategies to your toolbox.

  • Maximizing student engagement and achievement.

What is the T-MAP Certification Pathway?

The T-MAP certification pathway has three levels of enhancing educational expertise. Each level builds on the previous one, ensuring mastery in teaching, pedagogy, and classroom management through a structured curriculum and hands-on experience.

You can join at any level, earning a certification that stands alone while reinforcing prior skills. T-MAP caters to all career stages with customizable programs for your own groups of 6+, or you can join a session with educators worldwide.
