what we do

Mission Statement

We believe all people have the right to an education that enables them to fulfill their highest potential. We engage educational learners and leaders ​using data and evidence-based strategies, to strengthen and align systems, so that students can thrive in achieving educational and career success.​

who we are

An intersegmental collaborative of leaders, researchers, and practitioners, representing regional education-focused institutions.

The RLC was founded in 2015 by Claremont Graduate University (CGU) professor and RLC Executive Director, Dr. Nazanin Zargarpour, with anchor school district, Pomona Unified School District and postsecondary and national partners. The RLC Core Support Team (CST) of senior staff and graduate researchers at CGU directs, facilitates, and disseminates the intersegmental work.

After years of extraordinary success, the Regional Learning Collaborative has changed its name to Learning Collaborative Institute to be in closer alignment to its goals of serving many intersegmental education collaboratives in different geographies.
