What our students say…

“Rockland Teachers Center (RTC) offers practical, engaging courses that support educators at any stage of their careers. With flexible scheduling and relevant content, RTC is a valuable resource for professional growth. I highly recommend it to fellow teachers!”

~Brittany Martinez

“… courses were well planned and easy to follow …”
I took asynchronous courses with Greg Montague and Christina Amendola. Both courses were well planned and contained easy to follow directions/instructions. I learned how to use and incorporate several platforms to distance learning that would have been far more challenging for me to figure out on my own. The material was well-organized and the presenters were available to answer questions and/or give advice. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for asynchronous learning so that they can work on the content when their schedule permits.

Kimberly Kavanagh

“… extremely helpful …”
The Rockland Teachers’ Center Institute has been extremely helpful when planning my graduate courses. They are knowledgeable, professional, and friendly!

Nicolina Toia

“… knowledge I’ve gained is unmatched …”
RTC Institute has opened up more opportunities for me than I could ever have hoped for. I’ve made lifelong connections with other professionals where we help one another grow. The people I’ve met and the knowledge I’ve gained is unmatched and I can’t wait to see what the rest of this journey brings.

Mike Vogel

“… was the best decision I have ever made …”
My experience with the Rockland Teachers’ Center Institute has been to say the least, exemplary. The staff are always available and make you a priority. Going through the RTCI for my Masters degree was the best decision I have ever made. It has been an absolute pleasure working with them.

Meaghan Accardi

“… well organized and offered useful resources …”
Managing LD and AD in the Classroom was well organized and offered useful resources. I would recommend it for any teacher wanting to learn more about this topic.
