The Network

We build partnerships to transform education in Wisconsin and beyond

CONNECT.

We facilitate partnerships by building connections between the educators, researchers, policy makers, administrators, and community members in the state of Wisconsin.

ENGAGE.

We promote engagement by creating opportunities for all stakeholders in education to meet with different people around their shared interests, thereby promoting the flow of social capital.

TRANSFORM.

We help apply research to inform policy development, as well as promising areas of professional learning and practice. We also support collaborative research efforts, especially by identifying funding opportunities and co-developing grants.
