What is Learning Accompaniment?

The ongoing support from an experienced and learning-focused expert to ensure that your team or organization is making the most of your opportunities to learn, support others' learning, and improve in what you do and how you do it!

Learning accompaniment is like having a "fractional Chief Learning Officer", a learning advocate for employees and collaborators, or even an on-call learning [expert/team member] who knows enough about your work and your team to help you in both small and large learning opportunities!

Learning consultation and advising

Regular engagements as a member of a larger team of designers and doers, to ensure that learning strengths and opportunities are built into organizational projects, initiatives, and processes
