Teacher Executive Institute
The Teacher Executive Institute was selected as one of the 100 Best Businesses - Education partnerships in the nation by the Partnership in Education Journal. The Institute is recognized nationally in the Journal. The Pitt County Educational Foundation has created a number of innovative programs for Pitt County Schools. One such program is the Teacher Executive Institute. The Institute provides an opportunity for teachers to learn management techniques and acquire leadership skills through their interactions with Pitt County businesses. Teachers, who are competitively selected to participate annually, spend a day in companies where they participate in seminars designed to strengthen their leadership and communication skills. Topics include but are not limited to; “The Future of Leadership,” “Creativity and Innovation,” “Leadership,” “Successful Work Habits,” “Health Career Initiatives,” “Managing Diversity,” and “Interactions Skills.” Participating businesses have the opportunity to meet outstanding educators and show their appreciation and support for excellence in education. Through the generosity of DSM, Vidant Health, Grady-White Boats, Inc., Southern Bank, Greenville Utilities Commission, and Pitt County Schools’ Health Career Initiatives, 660 teachers have completed this excellent training opportunity since its inception in 1989. The Teacher Executive Institute Banquet, held each May, celebrates the accomplishments of these teacher leaders. |
