Creating a Community of Practice
Please complete the form if you have an idea for a Community of Practice. A Community of Practice (CoP) is defined as “a group of people who share a similar role, a common set of challenges, or an interest in a topic and who collaborate to fulfill shared goals.” So, for example, a CoP could consist of a group of individuals with alike job roles (Financial Aid Officers) or they could be convened around a shared problem or interest topic (student mental health support).
Answer the questions below to the best of your ability, to give us an idea of what kind of group or topic we should focus on - we understand some of these things may change as the CoP develops. After completion, a Consortium staff member will contact you to discuss further.
