Workshops · Self-paced · Join any time

The world is moving fast. Let us guide your department through the storm.

PE teachers are being asked to absorb more change in two years than the previous decade combined. AI rewrites the syllabus every quarter. Platforms, policies, and parent expectations are moving faster than the PD calendar can keep up with — and the noise is louder than the signal.

The full course is open now. Four modules, self-paced, built for you and your department — and taught in platform-agnostic tooling so the skills hold up no matter what your school chooses next. Join today, start today.

The course

Four modules. Four PE-teacher capabilities you walk out with.

This isn't a tour of one AI tool. It's a PE-teaching curriculum that uses AI — taught so the skills hold up on any platform you choose, in any school you teach in, on any tool that ships next year. ConnectedPE is the worked example because it's what we know, but every workflow we teach also runs on ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, the apps you already use, and the school systems you're locked into.

Each module leaves you with an artifact you could show your principal on Monday — and a capability you keep, regardless of which tools your school adopts.

Module 01 Available now

AI for PE teachers, from first principles

Transferable AI fluency. Works on any tool, not just ours.

  • A clear-eyed tour of today's AI landscape — what's worth your time, what to be wary of, what to never paste in
  • Prompting patterns that hold up across tools and across years
  • Building a personal prompt library you keep returning to
  • How AI tools (including ours) plug into the patterns once you know them

Artifact: A personal prompt library + a head start on lesson plans for the term.

You walk out able to: pick up any AI tool — current or future — and put it to work in your PE classroom inside ten minutes. No platform lock-in. Ever.

Module 02 Available now

Feedback & assessment in the AI age

The heaviest, highest-value module. Worth the ticket on its own.

  • Why feedback dies in PE — and the skill-file method that fixes it at the root
  • Build your own assessment builder: rubrics, checklists, tally sheets and stoplight grids for any skill or content you teach, every criterion mapped to your curriculum's outcome codes — paired with video-delay tools like Replay It for fast capture, fast return
  • One file, all six domains — from game sense to written analysis, no rebuilding
  • Train AI to write feedback in YOUR voice — then mark straight off your hand-marked clipboard, flagging only where it disagrees
  • Read a whole class at once and know exactly what to teach Monday

Artifact: Three skill files in your folder — assessment-builder.md, feedback-amplifier.md and class-lens.md — plus real assessments and student feedback produced with them, used with a real class within 7 days.

You walk out able to: assess and give individualised, evidence-based feedback to every student in every class — in a fraction of the time it currently takes for one. AI doesn't assess; it amplifies what you assess. Works on any AI tool, any school system.

Module 03 Available now

Modern PE workflows — planning, admin & comms

The boring high-leverage stuff. The "I got my Sundays back" module.

  • Audit where your week actually goes — and find the twenty small tasks that eat your Sundays
  • A simple test for what's worth turning into a skill file — and what to just chat through instead
  • Your highest-leverage workflows, found and ranked — they'll be different for every teacher
  • Turn the top of your list into skill files, using everything you built in Modules 1 and 2
  • Lock in the high-leverage moves; skip the ones AI does badly

Artifact: A time-back audit + a ranked shortlist of your highest-leverage workflows + skill files for the top of the list.

You walk out able to: reclaim 4–8 hours a week from whatever eats your time most — without lowering quality. The audit puts your own number on it. Your weekend back, on any school system, with any toolkit.

Module 04 Available now

Build your own + lead your team

The maker payoff + the organisational reality.

  • Pick the problem your Module 3 audit says is worth solving first
  • Build a working tool through conversation alone — no code required
  • A practical playbook for bringing colleagues along without becoming everyone's IT support
  • Making the case for AI use in PE to school leaders
  • Staying current — what to watch for after the workshop ends

Artifact: A custom tool you've shipped + a plan for bringing your department along + a brief for your admin.

You walk out able to: build the PE tool your school actually needs — and bring three colleagues along with you. The maker skill that future-proofs your career in a software-shaped world.

How the course runs

4 modules. Async. Built around what schools actually need.

Everything is open from the moment you join — no drip schedule, no waiting for a start date. Work through a module a week like the original cohort did, or move at whatever pace fits your term — at 6am with a coffee or at 9pm after pack-up. Optional assignments you can share and get feedback on, from me directly. Around 4 hours of video teaching from me, plus about the same again hands-on — building your skill files and working through the workbooks. Call it 8 hours total, and every hour of it leaves something in your folder.

01

Async, not abandoned

Video modules plus practical exercises. You set the pace. I'm in the course space responding to what people share.

02

Real feedback, not auto-graders

Share your assignments and you'll get a personal response from me — not a checklist, not a generated comment. The same feedback I gave 1:1 in face-to-face workshops.

03

Real conversation, not a content dump

You join the same space every workshop member works in. Comments, questions, and shared experiments are encouraged — and I read every skill file that lands in my inbox.

04

Transferable, not platform-locked

Skills work in any school on any platform — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, your existing apps, ours. ConnectedPE is your ongoing toolkit, not the curriculum.

Why listen to me

A decade of workshops. 40+ countries. Thousands of teachers.

For 15+ years The PE Geek has been the guide through moments like this — a blog, a podcast, apps used in 80+ countries, and workshops delivered in 40+. Thousands of teachers, the same role each time: cut the noise, hand you the patterns that actually hold up, send you back to your classroom able to do the next thing.

The workshop has run on three continents — in school halls and gyms, hotel ballrooms and convention centres, and on Zoom calls before Zoom was famous. It's never been a slide-deck performance. It's hands-on, you-leave-with-something-you-can-use-Monday. The new format keeps that DNA, just delivered async so it fits your week instead of the other way round.

Is this for you?

Who shows up

  • PE teachers wanting to use AI with intention, not novelty
  • Department heads who need to modernise the faculty's practice
  • Coaches and PD providers translating the workshop back to their teams
  • Schools sending a team together (bulk enrolment supported)
  • Anyone who's been to a PE Geek workshop before and wants the next chapter
  • Teachers in any country — fully async, the timezone is yours
What it isn't

Set expectations

  • Not a tour of ConnectedPE — skills are taught platform-agnostic, CPE is the ongoing toolkit
  • No live weekly sessions — intentionally async so it works in any timezone
  • No grades, no assessment, no pass/fail
  • No formal certification — just a completion badge if you finish all four modules
  • Not a replacement for in-person PD with your team — a complement to it
What's in the ticket

One workshop. One year of follow-through.

The skills are taught for any school on any platform — but you also get a year inside ConnectedPE so you have a supported toolkit while you put them to work.

Pricing

One price. Everything included. Start today.

Common questions

Frequently asked

What does the ticket actually include?

The 4-module self-paced workshop (videos, assignments, course space, personal feedback from me), 12 months of ConnectedPE access (every app, AI tool, course, library asset), and lifetime access to the workshop materials themselves.

When does the course start?

The moment you join. All four modules are open immediately — no drip schedule, no waiting for a cohort date. Work through a module a week like the original cohort did, or set your own pace. It's fully async and the materials are yours for life.

How do I pay?

Stripe checkout is the fastest path — card payment via the "Join now" button, instant confirmation, access within minutes.

Pay by invoice if your school needs a PO or your district's finance team handles it. Email [email protected] with the number of seats and any PO details and we'll send you a tailored invoice within one business day.

How much does it cost?

$99 USD, everything included — the full 4-module workshop, 12 months of ConnectedPE, personal feedback on your work, the completion certificate, and lifetime access to the materials.

Bulk school / district pricing and PO-based payments are also available — email [email protected] with the details and we'll send you a tailored invoice.

Is this just a ConnectedPE sales pitch?

No. The skills, workflows, and judgement you walk out with are entirely transferable — they work on ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, your existing video tools, your school's existing platforms. ConnectedPE shows up briefly as worked examples and as the ongoing toolkit for the year of access. Roughly 90% of the workshop is platform-agnostic.

Can my school send a team?

Yes. Bulk enrolments and PO-based payments are supported, and the workshop is explicitly designed to be valuable for school PD budgets — the "your teachers walk out AI-fluent in four modules" pitch is the line item. Email [email protected] with the details.

What if life gets in the way partway through?

There's no falling behind — every module stays open and you have lifetime access to the materials. Pause for a term and pick up exactly where you left off; your Upcoach login remembers your progress.

What gear / software do I need?

A laptop or iPad, a recent web browser, and access to a class (or a hypothetical class to run experiments against). Specific tools used in each module are listed inside — most are free or have free tiers, and ConnectedPE covers the rest.

I came to a PE Geek workshop in 2014 / 2017 / 2019 — will this be different?

Same DNA — practical, opinionated, hands-on — but fully redesigned around how teachers actually consume PD now. Async, self-paced, AI-aware, with lifetime access and a year of ongoing toolkit instead of "you had to be in the room."
