Sunbridge seeks to serve and advance the Waldorf movement not only through our teacher education programs but also through courses, workshops, and other events designed to assist Waldorf professionals in their work, introduce newcomers to Waldorf education and teaching, and provide opportunities for personal enrichment.
Offered each June and July, Sunbridge’s Summer Series courses are weeklong professional development opportunities for teachers and others preparing for their upcoming school year. Our January Waldorf Weekend workshop offers new and prospective Waldorf community members a hand-on exploration of Waldorf education, while Info Sessions, held throughout the year, help prospective Sunbridge students and others understand the hows and whys of Waldorf teacher preparation. We welcome you to the following online and in-person events:
