While you can almost never predict a crisis, you can always plan for one. This series will assist school leaders and school boards to effectively communicating with stakeholders during and in preparation for times of crisis. 

The webinar series holds together as a coherent, sequenced program, but participation in all sessions is not necessary. Each session will include content delivery, opportunities to interact with other educators relative to the topic, and access to tools and resources.

Audience: School Leaders, Board Members

Introducing Stephanie Van Koevering

Smart. Experienced. Practical. Determined. 

When clients talk about Stephanie, they describe a professional who gets results.  Look behind the scenes of many key initiatives of the last three decades and you’ll find her tirelessly producing strategies, documents and internal supports for a wide array of organizations.

After beginning her career in K–12 school finance, Stephanie went on to work in politics and state government. She spent four years in the executive office of the Michigan Department of Treasury before striking out on her own in 2001.

Stephanie has worked with clients in the public, private, nonprofit, university, and K–12 sectors. Her breadth of experience ranges from supporting top executives in large multinational corporations to helping start tiny new organizations from scratch.

A Michigan native, Stephanie now lives in DeWitt with her family. She is a graduate of Hope College.

At no cost to participants, up to 4.0 SCECHs can be earned for participating in our Crisis Communications for K-12 Schools series (1.0 for each session).
