Communities of Practice: Creating Community and Shared Learning to Support Student Success
January 23, 2025 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Discover how communities of practice (CoPs) empower faculty, staff, and administrators to drive meaningful improvements in student success. This webinar explores how CoPs foster collaboration, encourage innovative teaching practices, and provide essential support networks. By connecting professionals across disciplines, CoPs enable the sharing of strategies that boost engagement, retention, and learning outcomes. Join us to learn how implementing CoPs can create a transformative impact on your students’ success, and be the first to hear NISOD’s exciting announcement about a new program offering coming in 2025.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Define Community of Practice (CoP).
- Describe the purpose and structure of CoPs in higher education.
- Explain the connection between CoPs and student success, including how CoPs can lead to improved teaching practices and enhanced student outcomes.
- Identify the core elements that contribute to the success of CoPs.
