LCRG On-Demand Courses

For the last decade, Laurel School has hosted a biennial Center for Research on Girls Symposium. Each symposium welcomed over 100 educators and advocates for girls from around the country and Canada to come together to immerse themselves in the latest research on how to best educate girls and to share best practices.
LCRG has teamed up with One Schoolhouse -- a partner in innovation to independent schools that creates online courses for students and adult learners -- to bring the popular LCRG Symposium to educators globally, on demand. This new model allows educators to participate in LCRG professional development from wherever they are, and on their own time.

We invite you to explore the six LCRG courses currently available via One Schoolhouse

Unlike traditional online professional development courses, participants can start these courses at any time they are ready to begin, and have 30 days to complete approximately four hours of coursework. The fee for each course is $99.
