Human Capital Resources
Educator “human capital” encompasses all the work schools do to ensure that students are learning with effective teachers—as well as school leaders, counselors, paraprofessionals, substitutes, etc. Major topics within human capital include educator recruitment, hiring, placement, induction, development, career ladders, and retention. On this page, you can identify resources relevant to your needs that are organized both by topic and by type of resource (e.g., strategy brief, webinar, or toolkit).
If you have any questions about the resources or suggestions of what additional information would be useful, please contact Meagan_Steiner@iu13.org.
