Visiting Educators Program
Experience 2e Education in Action
The Bridges 2e Center Visiting Educators Program offers schools and educators an immersive opportunity to experience strength-based, talent-centered support for twice exceptional learners in a real school setting.
Designed for small groups of up to five educators, this one to three-day campus visit gives participants a behind-the-scenes look at Bridges Academy’s approach to supporting gifted students with learning differences. Visitors spend time on our Studio City campus observing classrooms, meeting with educators and leadership, and engaging in customized workshops designed around their school’s needs.
