CADER provides advanced localized training and professional development consulting services on a global scale that serve both the domestic and regional educational sectors. It brings a fresh and innovative approach to professional development services, acting as a liaison between schools and the world of entrepreneurship. Our goal is to empower a highly-skilled education workforce equipped with 21st century skills that enable educators to prepare a generation able to compete in the global economy. Through its training programs and consultations, CADER plays the role of a ChangeAgent® that aims at creating new professional standards. Our challenge is to build sustainable solutions and foster a deep and long lasting impact by offering flexible, tailor-made, practical professional development programs, and greater value, thus optimizing trainees’ personal and professional growth and improving their competences. What distinguishes CADER’s ompetence-based model most is its reliance on building knowledge rather than consuming it, providing solutions based on the needs of the workplace and its staff rather than ready-made ones, and promoting life-long learning skills.
