A practical decision loop
- Understand the starting point. Identify experience, licensing, goals, and available resources.
- Choose a meaningful milestone. Connect effort with the requirements of your pathway.
- Review activity and results. Look for patterns rather than guessing.
- Adjust the next move. Bring questions and learning back into the conversation.
This is the Moneyballers philosophy for making decisions. Specific support and program resources are discussed during your district conversation.
