No drive, no hotel, and no substitute. Your state's credit math works the same as if you were in the room. If December is spoken for, the summer edition runs Saturday, June 26, 2027, with the same program and the same credits. You can reserve it on this page.

THE SATURDAY · WHAT THE DAY COVERS

One day. The whole management system.

Every tool below is in your Resource Manual, and you practice each one before you leave. Rick teaches it as a working day, not a lecture.

BEFORE DEC 12

Your manual arrives

Your 200+ page Resource Manual ships to your door, and your join link arrives by email one week before.

8:30 AM ET

The case for a plan, and the five core beliefs

Rick starts with why classroom management needs its own training and the five core beliefs Time To Teach is built on. Then the teaching styles, and the authoritative middle path between too strict and too soft: give the choice, and honor the choice.

MID-MORNING

A room that works for you

Seating, lighting, color, scent, and music, set up on purpose. Then ten ways to build rapport with students, including the ones who test you first.

LATE MORNING

Teach-Tos

Teach a behavior expectation the way you teach any other lesson, step by step, so you stop explaining it again every day. The Teach-Tos book has one hundred of them written out.

EARLY AFTERNOON

The four diffusers and early intervention

Short, calm responses that end a challenge without a debate, plus four early intervention strategies that stop small disruptions before they spread.

MID-AFTERNOON

Refocus

The respectful consequence that replaces repeated warnings. One prompt, then Refocus, the same way every time. You practice the steps out loud until they come without thinking.

LATE AFTERNOON

Serious situations and the schoolwide plan

The steps for responding to an emergency situation, and how a school builds one discipline plan that every adult in the building uses.

3:30 PM ET

You leave with

A plan for Monday morning, your Resource Manual, a same-day CEU certificate, and your 4 graduate credits started.

Teachers working through a seminar activity together

You practice every tool with other teachers before you leave.

WHO TEACHES IT

Taught by the person who built it.

Rick Dahlgren founded the Center For Teacher Effectiveness and built Time To Teach on one idea: teaching succeeds where punishment fails. More than 400,000 educators in all 50 states have trained in the system over thirty years.

Rick still teaches it the way he designed it. You practice every tool in the room, out loud, until it feels like yours, and you leave with fewer warnings to give and more minutes to teach.

WHAT THIS IS WORTH · IN YOUR STATE

The same 4 credits, from your own desk.

4 UMass Global graduate credits are included, and live virtual attendance counts the same as sitting in the room.

4 CREDITS: PA = 120 ACT 48 HOURS · MI AND OH = 4 OF THE 6 THAT RENEW · CO = 60 OF 90 CONTACT HOURS

Sarah Perera · 6th Grade Language Arts · Ramseur, NC

QUESTIONS · ANSWERED STRAIGHT

Before you register.

How much work are the 4 credits?

After the Saturday you complete a practicum for UMass Global: 12 activities you run with your own students, each written up in about a page, plus 10 one-page writing assignments from your Resource Manual. It's due six months after the seminar, and your manual is the textbook.

What will my transcript say?

Classroom Management, from University of Massachusetts Global, a regionally accredited university (WSCUC). That's the course title your HR office will see.

Will this work with my students?

With Time To Teach, the Fresno County Office of Education reported suspensions down 24% in elementary schools, 53% in middle schools, and 65% in high schools. At Garfield Elementary in Montana, students reading at or above grade level went from 34% to 98% in three years.

Can my school pay?

Yes. Choose purchase order at checkout and we hold your seat while the paperwork moves. The Get It Funded page has a ready letter for your principal with your state's credit math filled in.

How does the live virtual day work?

You join a live session from any computer. Your join link arrives by email one week before, and your Resource Manual ships to your door ahead of time. Attend the full session to earn the credits.

What if I can't make it after all?

Full refunds up to 10 days before the seminar, and you can send a colleague in your place anytime.

FULL-STAFF TRAINING · TRAIN-THE-TRAINER · REQUEST A QUOTE

Would you rather we came to you?

A seminar is how one teacher gets the system. When the whole building needs it, we bring the training to your campus. There are three ways to do it.

Train your entire staff

We bring the full training to your campus on your PD day. Every teacher learns the same plan and the same language. The documented turnarounds on this site started this way.

Train your trainers

We certify your own people to deliver the program, so new hires get it every year without booking us again.

Send a team to a Saturday

Five or more seats from one building takes $30 off every seat, and the principal attends free as our guest.

How it usually starts: one teacher finds this page, the principal asks a question, and one quote later the whole building trains together.
