Our Peer Learning Cohorts are a dynamic way to share knowledge, experience, and lessons learned within education—and to channel this learning back to the “home” institution, departments, and initiatives of the participants. The intent is to create a safe, intentional, inclusive, and generative space for participants to consider together challenges and opportunities that they encounter.
Peer Learning Cohorts convene each month for a 6-month duration. The Peer Learning program is structured around monthly Zoom sessions and a day long in-person retreat.
