“We need to recognize that teachers know their students better than anyone else. Happy Schools are built on the foundation of teachers’ journeys and real-life experiences. Teachers’ inner transformation is the key to changing education!”

Welcome teachers to the Happy Online School project as pioneers on this journey!

Let's explore together what Happiness is and what it means in our lives. Not only that, as teachers and educators, we will also explore appropriate ways to bring Happiness Skills into the educational environment. 

Participants will follow program information and class schedules on elihw.org, including the latest updates and online class schedules.

The course content will be provided on https://happyschools.vn, which guides participants through each module and tracks their progress. In particular, for those who wish to obtain certification from Happy Schools Online, https://happyschools.vn is also a place to record their activities and achievements, making it easy to apply knowledge to teaching practice.

ABOUT THE COURSE

The 'Happy School Online' program is built on 4 years of experience from the 'Happy School Pilot Project in Hue' and 2 years of experience from the 'Happy School Pilot Project in Hanoi'. The project coordination team has worked directly with more than 300 teachers from 3 levels of education and more than 5,000 students to practice Happiness Skills, bringing about personal transformations, innovations in teaching and learning, and positive changes in the school environment.

We look forward to accompanying teachers on their journey of internal transformation to bring about lasting positive changes to the Vietnamese and international education systems.
