September 10, 2014, was a non-training day
on our center. We had about 100 instructional
staff attend training on campus and an additional
50 Academic Leaders met at Management
Training Corporation from around the
country for an academic leadership training.
As the demands on preparing students to be
college and career ready have evolved over
the past several years, Dr. Marzano and the
Marzano Research Laboratory have partnered
with Clearfield Cob Corps to create an academically
responsive program to meet these
challenges. In order to maintain an academically
rigorous and sustainable program in the
21st Century, Dr. Marzano addressed the instructional
framework which defines quality
teaching and quality learning. The professional
development provided by Dr. Marzano and
the continued support of his team will help
differentiate Clearfield Job Corps from other
learning alternatives for young people.

Robert J. Marzano, PhD, is cofounder and CEO of Marzano
Research Laboratory in Colorado. A leading researcher
in education, he is a speaker, trainer, and author
of more than 30 books and 150 articles on topics
such as instruction, assessment, writing and implementing
standards, cognition, effective leadership, and
school intervention. His books include The Art and Science
of Teaching and Effective Supervision. His practical
translations of the most current research and theory
into classroom strategies are internationally known and
widely practiced by both teachers and administrators

Dr. Marzano received a bachelor’s degree from
Iona College in New York, a master’s degree
from Seattle University, and a doctorate from
