Big News! ISEA Graduate Credit is Back—and Better! 

Ready to take the next step in your professional development? We've just launched an exciting partnership with Upper Iowa University to bring back Graduate Credit for ISEA Academy courses!

This collaboration provides two major wins for you:

  1. More Affordable: We've successfully negotiated a lower cost per Graduate credit hour! Invest in your education without breaking the bank. (The new rate is in the "Fees" section at the top of the page.)
  2. A Head Start on Your Degree: A select group of your ISEA Academy courses can now count as elective credit in an Upper Iowa University graduate program. Get credit for the professional learning you're already doing! (Don't forget to check with your program advisor for all the details!)

Important Note for Graduate Credit: To be eligible to receive Graduate credit through Upper Iowa University, you must possess a bachelor's degree from an institution that its regional accreditation association recognizes.

 

  Get ready to dive in! This is your opportunity to enroll in a self-paced, one-credit, four-week course that is entirely on your schedule!

Once your registration is processed, look for an email from your instructor packed with everything you need to know. As soon as you get those instructions, you're ready to begin! 

Remember, you have the entire 4 weeks to complete all your assignments, discussions, and the final project. It's flexible, but the clock is ticking!

 

Course Description:

This course helps educators and coaches apply the core principles of mental toughness training—focus, confidence, resilience, and consistency—to teaching, coaching, and mentoring students. Using Mental Toughness for Young Athletes as the foundation, participants will explore how short, intentional mindset exercises can help students (and themselves) navigate stress, setbacks, and performance pressure.

By connecting sports psychology to education, this course empowers teachers to cultivate classroom cultures that value effort, recovery, and growth over perfection.

Required Material:
Mental Toughness for Young Athletes: Eight Proven 5-Minute Mindset Exercises for Kids and Teens Moses & Troy Horne (2020)

Also, students are expected to read relevant journal articles that are assigned and engage with videos also assigned throughout the course as needed.
