Why Our Programs are Transformative 
​
ESCALA's programs are based on an asset-based, motivational model that encourages faculty and staff to become agents of change in their own service to students. For this reason they work hard in our programs to analyze their own practices, collect their own teaching data using analysis tools we provide, and prove to themselves that what they are doing instructionally working for students' learning. 

We stay away from one-shot programs because we don't think they are effective uses of your faculty and staff's time. Our programs, and professional learning, are most effective when everyone has multiple opportunities to build trust with one another, and acquire a deep understanding of what it means to be culturally responsive.

Hear how Yakima Valley College, Central Washington University, and Heritage University worked collectively with ESCALA to become more serving for Latinx students in Yakima Valley.

Since 2013, ESCALA has contracted with over 50 HSIs to transform
​their instructional culture.

We encourage multiple-year work with us to create authentic relationships and time to build capacity and culture change in your HSI.
