Redesigning Principal Preparation Through Strong University-District Partnerships
In 2016, the Wallace Foundation launched the University Preparation Program Initiative (UPPI), a five-year, $47 million project to help universities improve how they prepare future principals, particularly for the nation’s highest-need schools. In this webinar, two project directors and their district partners will discuss the purpose and design of UPPI, the development of their partnerships, their progress to date, and their plans for future work.
