Learning is Local

The LearningCITY Lab is here to help communities become learning hubs. We do this by identifying, researching, testing, and scaling innovations in learning and skills development.

We are the organization that learns about learning. We design and implement initiatives that are removed from the structures and cultures of the current learning communities.

Today, we deliver on our goals of system-level collaboration by coming together to empower innovative thinkers and doers from different learning communities to collaborate on preparing Canadians for our changing world.

The ability to learn faster than your competitors may be the only sustainable competitive advantage.

We believe learning
happens everywhere.


We host collaboration sessions among organizations, educators, and policymakers to uncover new and interesting ways to learn and adapt.

We ignite curiosity through experimentation and exploration.

These experimentation sessions are messy, curious, informative, and educational. They build trust, leadership and community.
