Get Started

If you have never heard of the i5 project and are looking to begin your journey, first start with a virtual Introduction to i5 Workshop. These workshops will be held once a quarter in 2024 to share the foundation of the i5 pedagogy and highlight examples of creative pedagogies from the PRME community. Below are the upcoming introductory workshops. Date and time and subject to change.

Reflect & Practice

Upon completion of an Introduction Workshop, the next step is to reflect and try putting the new learned framework into practice.

Take 15 minutes - Complete a self-assessment on the i5. This will be helpful to you as you continue to apply i5 in your classroom. Also, reserve a little time on your calendar to read the sections of the Playbook that most resonated with you, and complete the drills to check your understanding.

Try something small - You are likely already implementing some of the concepts in the i5 framework in your classroom! In your next class period, plan to do an i5 activity, signature move, or other concept that you’ve already done, but do it with more intention. Be open to trying new moves in the classroom, and iterate based on how it is received by your students!

Go Beyond: Get Certified

FAQs

# Can I still be certified in 2024 if I miss a quarter or start after the beginning of the year?

While we prefer educators to attend a session each quarter, we understand that circumstances may cause someone to be unable to attend sessions in all quarters. Please reach out to i5@unprme.org and we will consider possibilities on a case by case basis.

# What if a session I want to attend is not in my time zone?

We will try our best to offer each theme in a different time zone throughout the year. All of our sessions will be recorded and available. However, you do need to attend live for it to count towards your certification.

# Is the certification limited to 2024?

Yes, this certification is limited to 2024. In true i5 fashion, as we move through the year, we will iterate and consider feedback and look to improve and/or change this process in 2025.

# I would like to host an i5 workshop at my university and/or school, how do I do that?

Great! We have a facilitator guide available for you to get started. We also recommend you read through the full i5 Playbook. If you have additional questions, please reach out to i5@unprme.org. If you would like a member of the PRME Secretariat to speak at your workshop, please reach out to i5@unprme.org and we will consider it on a case by case basis as capacity allows.

# I would like to co-host a workshop and/or session with the i5 team, how do I get involved?
