01What it does

What Ilearn Collaborative does

Mission

ILearn Collaborative creates equity in education by building the capacity of educators to implement student-centered learning. We provide professional development, consulting services and a wide variety of digital resources, and we welcome the involvement of all.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Consulting Program - iLearn Collaborative expanded consulting services supporting education leaders to include comprehensive needs assessments, thought partnership support, leadership coaching and technical support. Our consulting work involves coaching/mentoring, planning, and collecting data and creating reports that include baseline data that offers education agencies an understanding of their current status in areas of focus for improvement. We offer final report recommendations to assist education agencies to see where they need further support and resources to improve and/or implement recommended strategies in identified areas in need of improvement or education initiatives. We identify existing resources and programs in place to support the vision, and the road map for closing the gaps to achieve desired outcomes. Other districts that were far enough along in their planning or implementation opted to engage in our "thought leader partnership" consulting services or coaching for new administrators. Our consulting services are offered in other states this year to include Kentucky and Colorado.

  2. Professional Development Program - iLearn Collaborative enrollments numbers increased steadily for the year. ILC trained education leaders and teachers in the areas of blended learning, special education, English language learners and other topics to empower educators with resources and training to improve instruction and student support. We continue to certify teachers through our train-the-trainer program that supports growing in-house local experts which builds capacity in districts and schools by increasing their ability to train more teachers with their own facilitators and training schedules customized to their needs. We have seen steady demand for our on-site training services that includes on-site training institutes and workshops. Our leadership and teacher coaching services had steady growth in demand and interest. We currently provide professional development services in Colorado, Kentucky, and Hawaii.

  3. Digital Resources Library - Our digital resources library where any educator could have access to training resources for the year. Our resources libraries are customized and designed to offer educators access to articles, digital tools, websites, and videos for leadership and instructional content. All virtual professional development workshops, webinars, and coaching hours are also available in the library. We updated this service based on need and demand for continued access to training materials following completion of online training courses and onsite face-to-face trainings. This is a best practice to ensure educators are able to access training 24/7 and not just while engaged in a course or participating in face-to-face training. This was a popular service with educators and we have added this program to our permanent list of services available to our partners.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
