CDE Leadership Learning Cohorts

What is a Learning Cohort?

A learning community of school, BOCES, and district leaders that meet monthly during the school year to intentionally focus on a common educational challenge. Participants engage in highly interactive and collaborative sessions, share their unique context across the state, set goals, and implement strategies to spark systems change and drive improvement.

What is the goal of a Learning Cohort?

Learning Cohorts tackle technical challenges through dynamic collaboration. These virtual and in-person sessions feature expert insights, resource sharing, problem-solving, and site visits. Participants will share, contextualize, plan, and apply new strategies. Join us for a safe space to innovate and solve complex issues together.

Who Should Join?

School, BOCES, and district leaders across the state of Colorado who want to engage in a collaborative problem-solving process in service of continuous improvement. Teams and individuals are welcome to apply, however the team approach is highly recommended. We welcome districts and schools of all sizes, from rural to large environments, as cohorts with diverse participants can offer a valuable learning experience.
