What is axis3 and How Can it Support Special Educators?

axis3, powered by Creatively Focused, is a multifunctional resource created specifically to address the needs of special education teachers, paraprofessionals, and administrators. Through axis3, we provide person-to-person support, timeline management, curated resources, professional development opportunities, and connections to help special educators succeed in their careers and feel confident in their ability to do so.

axis3 works with special educators to identify any hardships or inefficiencies in their day-to-day, helps them create a roadmap to achieve success, and provides tailored and ongoing support through any situation that may arise–so they can feel like valued experts at their jobs.

What does axis3 mean?

If you think of a 3D graphed model, it has 3 axes—x, y, and z. The simple definition of an axis is an imaginary line around which a body rotates. At Creatively Focused, we see those three lines as the top three reasons special educators stay in the field and have intentionally aligned those reasons to the support they receive within our platform.

For over 20 years, research has shown that special educators want:

  1. To know they are valued.
  2. To elevate their expertise.
  3. To be connected to someone whose day looks like theirs.

Over time, with targeted support in these three areas, we hope to see sustainability and retention in the field. 

Why axis3?

After years spent researching, observing, leading, and teaching in the field, we launched axis3. It is powered by passionate educators like you who want to more easily navigate the complex, daily demands of special education–so your career can feel settled and beautiful in your own way.

axis3 is here to help special educators do less with more. Giving you enough support during the day so you can keep your laptop shut when you get home at night. We believe axis3 will allow special educators the time back in their day so they can feel fulfilled in all aspects of their life.

Do less so they can feel what it’s like to be living their purpose and passion.
