What makes this certification
program different?
While others are talking about school improvement and
transformation, we are getting the job done.
The focus is on action,
not discussion
Whilst discussion is very important, too many programs simply talk about school change. Â
We all know things need to change, the question is what can we DO to make a difference in a sustainable way? We will show you WHAT is working, WHY it is working and help you set goals that are motivating and achievable.
You are in
control
The Certification Program is is designed with you in mind. Â
We help you set some goals and provide the training and support you need to achieve them. There are no set courses, you learn what you need, when you need it.
We have a
holistic process
We provide the training you need for staff, a transformation process you can follow, as well as frameworks and survey tools.
We are also a Google, Apple, and Microsoft partner company; we don’t just push one device or platform and can help you navigate your way through the myriad of technology choices.
Â
Choose the STEAM or Digital Fluency Strand (or both); the choice is yours.
When joining the program you can choose to specialise in our STEAM / Digital Technologies Strand, or our general Digital Fluency Strand.
The STEAM strand helps you develop a pedagogy of STEAM where Digital Technologies is integrated in meaningful ways across the curriculum.
The Digital Fluency Strand will develop your skills in training staff and students to effectively use technology, whether this be in a 1:1, BYOD, or any other format.

Here's what other educators are saying
about the program
Having the UTB leaders’ Support has helped me develop into a confident leader in the school environment. the skills and resources shared throughout the program have been put into action and have proven how important they are.
I have enjoyed the Certified Leader Program. I have built my confidence and learnt a lot about myself. I have learnt how to manage my time and be an effective leader by leading in a positive way that gets everyone involved and ensures everyone feels heard.
This program has made me a better person for both my family and my workplace.
I have a clear aspirational vision that shapes the small actions I do every day to
achieve significant goals.
The program is a great way to connect with like-minded educators who support
learning and self inquiry.
I loved the idea of working in 12-week blocks. Being an agent of change can sometimes be overwhelming, but working in smaller blocks of time with measurable outcomes makes all the difference. You can actually get a lot achieved!
The Certified Leader Program has equipped me with tools and strategies to guide others, have hard conversations and celebrate the wins!
Through the online community created in Google Meets we were able to give and receive additional support and share resources with like-minded educators. The program has guided me through my Google for Education coaching certification and UTB’s platform offers great resources to upskill and expand on existing knowledge.

The Certified Leader Program has enabled me to gain confid ence in myself and my abilities, as well as learn from the connections with other like-minded educators around the country
The Certified Leader Program has allowed me to set my own DT leadership goals relevant to our school, with support provided from the 1:1 mentoring and group coaching calls. The GROWth model has helped me create achievable actions.
I’ve also benefited from the connections with others on the program; connections I hope will be ongoing.
The videos modules were invaluable, but the real magic came in the group meeting calls; being able to talk with, learn from, and practise coaching skills with like-minded people.
