Contract – Academy Educator – For Perusal

APNPI Educator Contract

Course Descriptions

1. Thrive Series Collection – Fun, bite sized and actionable. Cohesive and consecutive to guide and empower students. Challenges serve to focus, excite, and enable tangible growth. Exciting and empowering, these are rewarding to teach! Each part in the series is under 15 min.

Each Thrive Series has an introduction followed by 5 short episodes, each being 5 to 15 minutes in length.
Each episode has a simple, actionable homework challenge, with a call to action. (ie: “Your homework challenge is to try these editing tips on an image of your own. Be sure to share your results under the course thread in the fb group and use the hashtag #xxxx”!)
Each Challenge will have a hashtag named by the instructor, so that members taking the course at a later date can search for and find the discussion.
Educators are welcomed to provide downloadable pdf's as supplement for students. This is optional.
APNPI will post the Challenge thread in the fb community group when the series part is released and featured.
Educators will be asked to encourage students as they submit their Challenges in the community fb group during the release week of the series part. After that we understand you are busy and on to other projects!
Each episode will be released separately, approximately one week at a time. Regular members will have access to the first two episodes for 24 hours at the beginning of its feature week, while Academy members will have unlimited access.
Educators are invited (optional) to provide a short intro and conclusion video to be placed as modules with their main video in the education platform.
Thrive Series episodes differ from the Masterclass series by focusing on actionable growth-focused Challenges, while the Inspire Masterclass episodes deliver in-depth philosophical explorations of a topic much like what you would find at a conference workshop.

2. Thrive Essentials – The same as above - but these comprise of only one, two, or three episodes instead of the standard amount of five episodes found in the Thrive Series Courses.

3. Inspire Masterclass Collection - Unique, inspiring and invigorating. A chance to think outside of the box and dig deeper, these classes excite and nourish the creative spirit. Approx hour long episodes.

Each Masterclass is designed to reflect the experience of a conference workshop. Length is approximately 1 hour.
Masterclasses deliver in-depth explorations of topics, and can be philosophical in nature as well contain actionable concrete instruction.
- Where the Thrive Series are designed to systematically take the student from point A to point B, the Masterclass may or may not be as concrete in nature, and can take the student on an inspirational exploration in lieu, or even alongside, that of a concrete tangible journey. Think of those times you've been inspired and awed by a speaker, and though you may not have gained a particular skill through that workshop, you nonetheless left with a significant and exciting shift within yourself. This is the Masterclass - some will increase their skills and abilities while others expand their horizons.
Each Masterclass should have a call to action at the end. This could be in the form of a personal challenge or something more tangible like a homework assignment and is at the discretion of the educator.
Educators are welcomed to provide downloadable pdf's as supplement for students. This is optional.
Educators are asked to provide a short introduction video to be placed as a module with their main video in the education platform. This introduction will also be used in social media promotion and should be 30 to 60 sec in length.
Final video content should include the APNPI branding video clip at the beginning and end. Branding bumper files will be provided.
APNPI will post the Masterclass discussion thread in the fb community group when the Masterclass is released and featured.
Educators will be asked to encourage students and answer questions in the community fb group during the release week of their Masterclass. After that we understand you are busy and on to other projects!
