Celebrating the One-Year Anniversary of AAICIS

In this #coachbetter episode, Kim chats with members of the team from the Association for the Advancement of Instructional Coaching in International Schools (called AAICIS), where Kim is currently serving as the Executive Director.

The organization is celebrating its one-year anniversary by reflecting on its achievements since its launch in March 2024. The discussion highlights the unique support AAICIS offers to international school educators interested in or currently working in instructional coaching. The team shares how their all-volunteer, all-remote group has advanced coaching practices tailored specifically to the international school context.

(For more about how AAICIS got started, check out our episode from March 2024 "Introducing the Association for the Advancement of Instructional Coaching in International Schools (AAICIS)")
