With the SchoolSims AI PD Plan Importer, districts will be able to upload an existing professional development plan, leadership guidebook, induction framework, or principal pipeline document.
AI helps transform the document into a structured implementation plan by identifying:
Administrators can review and revise the AI-generated plan before publishing it to a cohort.
Turn a narrative PD document into an organized implementation plan—without rebuilding the entire program manually.
Track Implementation Across the District
The SchoolSims Implementation Dashboard provides a consolidated view of participant and cohort progress.
District leaders can examine completion by:
- Participant
- School or building
- Program activity
- Task category
- Competency area
- Month or reporting period
Progress indicators help administrators see which parts of the program are moving forward and which require attention.
Monitor the complete development experience
Track progress across:
- Professional development
- Hands-on practice
- Personalized coaching
- Communities of practice
- Development plans
- School improvement projects
- SchoolSims simulations
Collect Evidence of Applied Learning
SchoolSims helps districts document more than participation. Participants can provide evidence showing how they are applying professional learning in practice.
Evidence may include:
- Project artifacts
- Coaching notes
- Reflection responses
- Development plans
- Attendance records
- Portfolio links
- School improvement evidence
- Simulation decisions and responses
This gives districts a more complete picture of program participation, application, and growth.
SchoolSims connects professional learning activities, simulation performance, reflections, coaching, and evidence to district-defined competencies and professional standards.
Districts can use the educator competency assessment platform to examine strengths and development needs across areas such as:
- Lead with Courage
- Build Culture
- Lead Academics
- Develop People
- Manage Operations
- Beliefs and Values
Competencies can also be aligned with a district’s leadership framework or applicable professional standards.
Move from counting completed activities to understanding the capabilities participants are developing.
Identify Participants Who Need Support
The dashboard helps administrators recognize missing activities, incomplete evidence, overdue milestones, and inconsistent participation.
Configurable alerts can flag:
- Missed coaching sessions
- Overdue reflections or action plans
- Missing evidence
- Incomplete simulations
- Projects falling behind schedule
- Competency areas needing reinforcement
These insights allow program leaders to intervene earlier and provide more targeted support.
Turn Program Data Into Clear Insights
SchoolSims can bring activity, evidence, simulation, and competency information together in a plain-language cohort summary.
AI-generated summaries can help district leaders understand:
- Overall cohort progress
- Program strengths
- Persistent participation gaps
- Coaching engagement
- Competency trends
- Project implementation
- Participants or schools requiring attention
- Recommended next steps
Instead of manually assembling updates from spreadsheets and disconnected systems, administrators receive a concise view of how the plan is being executed.
Connect Professional Development to Real-World Practice
SchoolSims simulations allow educators and school leaders to practice navigating realistic challenges in a safe environment.
Districts can assign simulations based on program activities and competency needs, including:
- Difficult staff conversations
- Teacher coaching and feedback
- Parent and community conflict
- School culture improvement
- Budget and operational decisions
- Safety incidents
- Instructional leadership
- Staff performance and development
Simulation decisions, reflections, and AI coaching insights become part of the participant’s broader professional-growth record.

SchoolSims supports a range of K–12 development programs:
- Aspiring-leader academies
- Principal pipelines
- New-leader induction
- Teacher induction and mentoring
- Instructional coaching
- District leadership development
- School improvement initiatives
