Opportunity Knocks has developed a unique and proven approach to help ensure educators, administrators, and youth clients are inspired and empowered to achieve.
 We Prepare Future Generations
Opportunity Knocks is unique in that we offer programs for the education community and youth to prepare for the challenges of tomorrow. We work with the entire education system - educators, administrators, parents and youth - to help youth achieve their maximum potential in areas that enhance the classroom curriculum.
We know that reading, writing, and arithmetic are core skills that are essential to prepare our youth for the workforce. Our unique programs reinforce these basic fundamentals, while simultaneously building important skills such as time management, planning, leadership teamwork, and effective communication.
We also build the skills of teachers and administrators so they are most effective, and can serve as role models for youth.

We Plan and Implement
We work collaboratively with educators and administrators to develop systemic, clear, and actionable strategic plans for the education systems, schools, and teachers. Throughout this process, we challenge our clients to have a vision for the future, and to think creatively. Importantly, we make sure that the right people are involved at the right time. We believe that this bottoms-up approach is essential, as it results in better decisions and buy-in from the individuals who drive implementation.
We then take it one step further. Once a plan is in place, we stick with educators and administrators to make sure the plans are working. Often, unanticipated issues arise during the implementation phase. We coach our clients through these issues and help them re-tool the tactics so that they can meet their strategic objectives.
For youth, we help develop their planning and implementation skills. These are fundamental skills that our youth can utilize now as students, and in their future careers. We understand the talents that our youth will need to succeed in the workplace. Our planning and implementation training provides youth with these critical skills.

We Customize
We work in a manner that works for educators and youth. Although our work is based in key frameworks and methodologies, we avoid "canned" approaches. Our work is designed to be relevant and practical for educators and youth. This means our plans are highly effective, targeted at the specific client challenges, and result in sustained, measurable results.

We Assemble the Right Team of Experts
Each client is different. Thus, each client requires a customized team of experts to address their unique needs and issues. Opportunity Knocks has assembled a network of results oriented professionals from a wide variety of disciplines including education, organization development, leadership, and child psychology. As a result, we can quickly assemble a team that has the skills to meet client objectives. We make sure you have access to the appropriate expertise at the right time.
