SEL is needed today more than ever.

There is overwhelming evidence that our children are facing major social, emotional and mental health obstacles. Anxiety and depression among youth in the US are at all-time highs. The good news is that, in a growing body of research, the learnable, measurable skills of emotional intelligence are correlated with increased academic achievement, better health, stronger relationships, greater self-efficacy, and improved quality of life. A meta-analysis of 213 rigorous studies of SEL in schools linked quality SEL instruction to higher academic performance, fewer disruptive behaviors such as aggression and delinquent acts, improved attitudes and behaviors and reduced reports of depression, stress, and anxiety from students and their counselors.

This course combines Six Seconds’ tools and training methods with the latest research on neuroscience and SEL. You’ll learn how to deliver, interpret, and debrief the SEI-YV and SEI-pYV, the world’s leading EQ assessment suite for youth. You can support children’s social and emotional development with quantifiable feedback and turn insight into action.

Pioneers in Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

For over 25 years, Six Seconds has been training and supporting people to use emotions as resources – and our history with social emotional learning goes even deeper than that: Six Seconds’ Self-Science curriculum was first published in 1978; in 1992, Daniel Goleman observed the program and dedicated a chapter of his 1995 bestselling book, Emotional Intelligence, to how emotional intelligence can work in education.

Six Seconds offers innovative tools and life changing training for parents, educators and counselors to create evidence-based social emotional learning (SEL) solutions. You will take away an in-depth understanding of emotional intelligence and practical tools you can use to measure and develop children’s emotional intelligence.
