FLEX AND PRO
FLEX Curriculum is the perfect complement to PRO Learning, providing access to a rich library of lessons, videos, resources, and assessments you can immediately put to use in your art room.
Together, FLEX and PRO empower you to experience professional development that directly connects to the curriculum you teach
Benefits
When teachers engage in relevant professional development, their students directly benefit from improvements in classroom management, revitalized procedures, and exploration of new mediums.
With all the equipment, materials, and procedures, there’s no classroom quite like an art room. PRO Packs cover a range of topics, from instructional strategies to organization, media to assessment, and beyond. Teachers can explore their own artistic interests individually or build a sense of community with fellow art educators in their district as they gain insights specific to the art room.
Incorporating PRO Learning district-wide is a win-win for admins and teachers. PRO is easy to implement, teachers will feel supported by engaging PD, and there’s an assurance that the content is built for art educators by art educators. PRO can be used to train new teachers or develop new skills across the district, such as creating a ceramics program.

Testimonials
PRO Packs have been incredibly helpful in helping teachers feel supported. Veteran teachers and new teachers are able to pick and pull what they want or use all of it. Sometimes, I’m unable to have a 20–30 minute discussion with them. I can direct them to this resource.
Love it all! It is so hard to find good art resources and you provide such a great variety. The PRO Learning videos are so helpful with so many examples and explanations! It has been a lifesaver for me as a first-year high school art teacher … Thank you!
“The big difference with the FLEX Curriculum is the quality of the lessons. Our district is very studio based. It’s all about projects and hands-on learning. It’s doing, creating, making—it’s a very artistic mindset type of learning. These FLEX lessons really lend themselves to what we’re trying to do, and we feel that it really helps our new art teachers.”
