About.

With over 400 educators from around the West Michigan area, we have brought design thinking, relevance, and project based learning into the classrooms of thousands of students.  Through training, opportunities to connect with others, and innovative programming, we continue to support our educators and their students to help students become equipped with 21st Century Skills and start to decide what is next for them. 

Established in 2019

Allegan, Kent, Muskegon and Ottawa Area are collaboratively working together on creating a network of educators who are dedicated to bringing design thinking and relevance into their classrooms through Project Based Learning.  ​

Our Goal

We hope to provide resources, trainings, support to all educators throughout the West Michigan area.  As we continue to grow our network of educators, we want to keep the quality of content high and impact more students. ​​
