Upcoming Events

Summer DoS Certification Virtual Training - 10:00am - 4:00pm ET | 7/17/25 


The DoS Certification Course is a 12-week process with self-guided learning that covers the DoS framework, a webinar with PEAR trainers, completion of video calibration exercises, a one-hour live calibration session, and successful completion of two practice observations in the field. PEAR staff provides ongoing technical assistance, quarterly data reports, and online data management support for all DoS observers for two years post-certification. Once certified, observers can visit sites that are hosting STEM activities and take detailed field-notes. Using the rubrics to assign ratings for each dimension that are backed up with evidence from the observation, scores can be aggregated across settings in particular geographic regions to look at trends or used for feedback and coaching at a particular site.

Participants must register by 6/19/25 in order to complete the pre-work for this training.
