Thank you to everyone who joined us for our recent webinar introducing the OBC Curriculum-Based Professional Learning (CBPL) Cohort! This exciting new cohort opportunity brings together providers and school districts to collaboratively implement outcomes based contracting, ensuring teacher support and improved student outcomes through high-quality curriculum. What are districts and providers saying when they imagine an outcomes based partnership for CBPL? “Success looks like a district and provider viewing each other as partners in the work and teachers reporting that their practice using HQIM has significantly improved due to the PL they have received.” “It opens up the potential for a true partnership with clear agreed upon goals from the start.” If you missed the live session, don’t worry, you can access the recording here: https://bit.ly/3V717Aj! Applications for the CBPL Cohort are open until December 6, 2024, so there’s still time to apply today! https://lnkd.in/gTCRvccM #OBCCBPLCohort #CenterForOBC #StudentImpact

Join representatives from the Center for Outcomes Based Contracting for Provider Office Hours on December 3 @ 1pm EST. Register Now: https://lnkd.in/g8H9z5zx This session will dive deep into how districts and providers are collaborating together through outcomes based contracts (OBC). OBC is a model of contracting for academic products and services in which at least 40% of the overall payment to a provider is contingent on meeting agreed-upon student outcomes, fostering a culture of mutual accountability and fidelity of program implementation. OBC ignites partnerships to track efficacy and ensure public dollars spent lead to real student academic impact. Join office hours to learn why OBCs are quickly becoming increasingly popular throughout k12 districts, and how they’re helping districts and providers build long lasting, sustainable partnerships during the wake of funding challenges.
