Communities of Practice

What is a Community of Practice?

A community of practice (CoP) is a discussion group based around a common topic. In these groups, participants talk about new learnings and ideas and share them with one another.

This year, our AEDY communities of practice will feature successful strategies shared by AEDY programs. Each session features a different program and strategy.
