Learn. Grow. Transform.
We believe that - even as adults - humans never stop learning. At PCTE, we form lasting partnerships with our adult learners to support them throughout their training and throughout their careers.
Our Mission
Princeton Center for Teacher Education (PCTE) is dedicated to providing quality training courses and professional development to those who embrace the method and philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori. Our programs are based on Montessori pedagogy and best practices in the fields of education and child development. We seek to provide an experience of personal and professional transformation for our adult learners as they prepare to become world-class Montessori educators.
PCTE is committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse community and learning experiences that challenge us to appreciate differences and act in a way that is respectful to all.
