Through our offerings, school administrators, teachers, and thought leaders from across the country learn about the educational, economic, and social issues affecting urban young men. Eagle Academy educators offer workshops on the Eagle Model. Secondary school administrators as well as college and university leaders learn how to apply the Eagle Model to their communities. Hundreds of educators from large metropolitan public school districts from across the country learn actionable strategies to apply to their localities.
Each year, PDI convenes a national conference on educational practices to best serve inner city young men and help them in their quest to become productive members of society. Held at our state of the art $50 million flagship campus in the Bronx, the conference consists of 2-3 days of on-site workshops and seminars hosted by the Eagle Academy Foundation and facilitated by members of the Eagle Academy faculty. Topics ranged from pedagogical content and curricular material, to strategic methods in motivation and engagement that foster the emotional intelligence among students indispensable to the successful implementation of the Eagle Model model. The conference is relevant for educators, as well as any individual interested in promoting the achievement of male students.
