The purpose of this research project was to explore methods of providing professional development opportunities utilizing action inquiry as a framework for leadership development and to report on a study that adopted a quantitative research design to identify the impact on individual's self-efficacy beliefs after participating in a ten-month professional development program. This professional development program utilized an action inquiry approach to leadership development and was designed to help educators understand and adopt an inquiry-based approach to learning and teaching while contributing to their knowledge base. The study involved the use of retrospective (post-then-pre) self-efficacy questionnaire to capture self-efficacy belief changes. There were three preliminary questions that the study sought to answer: 1). Is utilizing action inquiry an effective intervention for leadership development? 2). What is the effect on an individual's self-efficacy beliefs after participating in a professional development program that was designed using action inquiry as a framework for leadership development? 3). Will individuals that participated in the professional development program report higher levels of confidence in their ability to teach nutrition and lead groups of students through the inquiry-based learning process? Findings from this study show that participants experienced; growth in teaching efficacies, increased confidence, and improved facilitation skills for guiding inquiry in the classroom.
