Cognia Learning Community

Community in Action

As educators, we’re all in this together to improve leadership and instructional practice, providing the best opportunities for all learners. The Cognia Learning Community offers you and your staff an innovative professional learning experience and a platform to share and engage with peers locally and from around the world.

Convenient, high quality professional learning

Cognia offers a new approach to professional learning: The Cognia Learning Community with built-in coaching. This 24/7, online platform offers relevant, differentiated professional development when and where it’s convenient for busy educators. The Cognia Learning Community, one of the many benefits of membership, couples self-directed learning with the ability to connect with your peers for direct problem solving.

Why the Cognia Learning Community?

We have long believed that the best professional learning experiences should:

  • Occur over time
  • Be personalized to meet the needs of the adult learner
  • Address diverse learning styles
  • Provide an embedded social learning component

Cognia’s professional learning experience delivers just that. It connects the point of learning with application in the classroom, solving an enduring problem with PD—its lack of relevance and applicability to teachers’ daily practice.

Users can log in at their convenience, and go at their own pace.
