Since its emergence from the Essential For Living (EFL) framework, Event-Based Teaching (EBT) has extended EFL’s quality-of-life orientation by organizing instruction around meaningful, naturally occurring events rather than isolated skills or academic sequences. Grounded in the same evidence-based teaching and measurement principles that define EFL, EBT provides practitioners with a practical system for identifying teachable moments, embedding instruction into daily routines, and evaluating progress based on functional outcomes that matter to the individual. The result is instruction that is contextually relevant, dignifying, and directly tied to improvements in real-world participation and quality of life.
The course workbook is included with your enrollment and is available as a downloadable PDF directly within the course. The workbook is designed to function as both a guided companion to the training and a reusable planning tool for practice. It walks participants through the why, what, and how of Event-Based Teaching, with structured reflection prompts, learner profile worksheets, event-design templates, and data-collection tools grounded in the Essential for Living framework. Throughout the workbook, you will find concrete examples of skill stacking within real events, space-design planning pages, and blank design sheets you can adapt to your own learners, settings, and teams. Many practitioners continue to use the workbook after the course as a reference and planning resource when designing new events, training staff, or evaluating learner progress over time.
The course is fully self-paced, and you may begin at any time after enrolling.
