Teaching Artist Training 

​

The Teaching Artist Training (TAT) supports the development of informed, reflective, and culturally responsive teaching artists. The TAT fosters individual and collective growth within the teaching artist profession and supports access to further employment within the field. Current and planned TAT programs include teaching artist training, coaching, and continuing professional development. These programs are designed to meet the professional development needs of artist educators, and the schools and arts education organizations that employ them.
