“I would never have guessed that I would be traveling to K-12 districts all over the country talking about purposeful technology integration. That’s because 5 years ago, I could tell you ZERO about technology, much less, authentic and meaningful use of technology in the classroom. I didn’t use tech in my class because I was afraid of it. That all changed once I joined COETAIL and became a Google Certified Trainer. COETAIL and the Google Trainer certification go hand-in-hand. While the Google Trainer certification gave me more of the tech skillset, COETAIL gave me the mindset to be an innovative leader to push thinking and change the way we think about education. COETAIL and the GET program is the perfect partnership!” ~Emily Roth

“COETAIL helped my classroom practice grow exponentially through digital collaboration and reflection among a cohort of international educators. The focus on educational technology and information literacy provided skills and insight essential to any teacher’s classroom. The Google for Education Trainer certification process helped me hone my skills within GSuite as well as outside of the classroom as a leader of professional development among my peers. Both programs have provided me with an ever growing professional learning network. I’m so excited to see these two programs join forces. Together, COETAIL and Google set the stage for the growth of a powerful network of global educators with the tools and pedagogy to take our classrooms to the next level of learning.” ~Ryan Harwood
