Empowering Educator Advancement with Micro-credentials
Our micro-credential-based professional learning programs are designed to strengthen teachers’ skills and help accelerate their careers without leaving their classrooms. We partner with school districts to quickly build instructional capacity while growing and retaining great teachers.

BloomBoard is partnering with states, school districts and universities to develop and retain teachers, and to address the nation’s biggest education challenges. We’re working with school districts to rebuild from COVID-disruption. We’re helping teachers hone skills to address learning recovery and student well-being. We’re also preparing teachers to earn National Board Certification and Rank Change. We’re doing all of this work with micro-credentials.
Hear more from teachers about the work we are doing together.
Building Actionable Teacher Skills for COVID Recovery
As schools face unprecedented challenges resulting from the pandemic, teachers are asking for support in moving students forward. Our new foundational micro-endorsements can help:
- Foundations of Learning Recovery
- Foundations of Student Well-being
- Foundations of Attending to Equity
BloomBoard provides a completely different professional learning experience
Our micro-credentials are not time-based, seat-based, or measured by passing an exam. They are created by educators and rooted in research. Our innovative learn-by-doing process allows teachers to practice what they’re learning in their own classrooms and to demonstrate their abilities by submitting a portfolio of artifacts derived from their actual practice. Where other professional development programs leave off, we are just getting started!
Our micro-endorsements consist of multiple, individual micro-credentials representing a set of discrete skills needed for certification in a given topic. They are used by many states as official educator certifications.
Why Teachers Love BloomBoard
We give teachers a more personalized way to take control of their professional growth based on their needs and goals. Their professional learning is integrated into their daily classroom practice to try what they learn and demonstrate what they can accomplish.

Why Administrators Love BloomBoard
We offer districts a coherent, transparent scale for measuring educator career growth for the purpose of promotion and salary advancement. Districts can better recruit, develop, and retain educators by aligning to BloomBoard’s competency-based career advancement pathways.
