EE PASS

On-demand support for every educator.

Teachers need reliable, high-quality support that they can access the moment they need it. NIET’s Educator Effectiveness Preparation and Support System (EE PASS) is a professional learning platform that provides 24/7 access to resources including videos, learning modules, and documents to support collaboration. District and school leadership teams also leverage EE PASS to enter and analyze observation data in an easy-to-use system that ensures consistent, actionable feedback.

As part of NIET’s comprehensive system of support for districts and schools, EE PASS extends professional learning, deepens instructional knowledge, and builds more consistent coaching across classrooms and schools.

Explore Free EE PASS Resources

We are sharing three free resources to give educators a look inside EE PASS.

Module - Presenting Instructional Content This self-paced learning module on the Presenting Instructional Content rubric indicator helps educators deepen their understanding of what strong instruction looks like in practice. Participants explore real classroom examples, reflect on key elements of effective teaching, and learn the specific teacher actions that make content clear and engaging for students.
Video - 8th Grade English Lesson, Full Lesson This full English Language Arts lesson shows a teacher guiding students to identify a theme using evidence from multiple sources. She reviews prior learning, models expectations, and uses academic language to help students refine their ideas and select strong supporting evidence. Students engage in structured peer feedback and finish with a short written task to demonstrate progress toward the day’s goal.
Video - Elementary Cluster Meeting, Full Meeting In this weekly teacher collaborative learning “Cluster” meeting, the leader guides teachers in reviewing student work. Teachers then work together to plan how to teach an inference strategy aligned to their reading curriculum, using clear examples modeled by the leader to support effective classroom implementation.
