When educators thrive, students thrive.

For 25 years, CATDC has helped California independent school educators thrive by offering trusted and relevant professional development, building strong local connections, and serving as a career catalyst. Our programs make a difference for educators who participate, their school communities, and most importantly, their students.
We are a nonprofit created with independent schools, not just for them—rooted in collaboration, shaped by educator voices, and responsive to the evolving needs of our community. Join us in breaking down barriers to vital learning and growth.
