2026 International Early Childhood Inclusion Institute

Effective coaching starts with the right match. In this session, participants will explore the online Coaching Match Tool and related resources. This practical tool helps leaders and coaches align coaching strategies with educator needs, experience, and context. We’ll walk through how the tool works, discuss evidence-based principles behind matching, and share examples of how programs have used these resources to build capacity for inclusion. Participants will leave with actionable steps for integrating the Coaching Match Tool into their own systems, along with access to templates and guides that make implementation easy.
