Competency-based professional learning That Transforms classrooms.
Innovative Professional Learning. proof over paperwork.
Welcome to CIP Learning, a professional learning firm rethinking teacher professional development.
Our vision is a transformed teaching and learning experience for all young people—and that transformation begins with teachers.
The current state of professional development? Compliance, seat time, surface-level learning.
At CIP Learning, we believe in Proof Over Paperwork.
We use personalized, competency-based learning (PCBL) to guide our work. Teachers demonstrate mastery of innovative pedagogy through practical application—by designing, implementing, documenting, and publicly sharing community-connected projects and partnerships with their students.
Kindergarteners partner with the local fire station to create disaster preparedness PSAs. Students study agricultural science and launch farm-to-table programs. Kids collaborate with the city recycling department to design and build park benches from recycled plastic.
Teachers document the process—the successes and the challenges—then publicly share their learning with community members and peers.
Our educators experience deep, community-connected learning in parallel with their own students. Teachers learn, grow, and share. Students experience authentic, competency-based learning.
No question of impact. We write the story of transformative teaching and learning together. Proof Over Paperwork.
