About PLS

It has always been our goal to provide children with the best-trained teachers in the world.

Performance Learning Systems, Inc.® (PLS®) has identified the skills that make teachers effective and developed a unique way of training those skills.

It is our ability to train teachers in the true craft of teaching — these skills and performance patterns — that clearly sets Performance Learning Systems apart.

We were the first to:

• Interview teachers as experts
• Isolate the skills that excellent teachers universally use
• Develop training design that uses sound practices of teaching to train sound practices of teaching

Since 1971, PLS has taught more than a million educators throughout the United States, Canada and Australia to be more effective teachers. We offer a full spectrum of high-quality education programs and services for the education community. Our programs bring out the best in teachers who, in turn, bring out the best in their students.
