Coordinated by MCLI, this project has a simple, but tremendous goal-- to truly change Maricopa into a system that is focused on learning in all of its actions. It was originally funded as part of a PEW-Kellogg-American Council on Education (ACE) project to look at change and institutional transformation. The project is lead by a steering team of faculty and administrators.

In addition to a 1997 guiding document, learning@maricopa.edu has been bringing this discourse to our colleges via a series of Open Space Forums, in which the agenda is decided by the faculty, staff, and students that choose to attend.
