Peer Intervention Program
Are you a tenured teacher or guidance counselor who is struggling with pedagogical and professional issues?
Are you ready to take responsibility for achieving high standards and becoming more effective?
Get confidential one-on-one help from highly experienced, specially selected colleagues who will create individualized professional development plans with you to emphasize your strengths and improve your shortcomings.
With the Peer Intervention Program (PIP), you can take charge of your own professional standards, address instructional issues and turn your career around.
Or, after working with your intervenor for several months you decide your career is not fulfilling, with the help of a PIP career counselor, you can discover one that is. This can be either within the education field or a completely different career path.
All of the support you receive at PIP is voluntary, confidential and nonevaluative. It’s also compassionate and holistic. A counselor is available for support throughout your participation.
The nationally recognized Peer Intervention Program is devoted to providing the best possible education for the students of New York City. It was co-founded by the UFT and the Department of Education in 1988.
PIP is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and is located at 50 Broadway, 5th Floor, NY, NY, 10004. Summer hours are from 9:00 a.m. to 5:15 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
