Eighty-two percent of learning across the lifetime happens outside school. Nationwide, many afterschool programs are ready to take a next step to strengthen the learning experiences they offer. EDC’s professional development and research-based resources help professionals in rural, urban, and suburban community-based organizations and school districts enrich informal learning. Our goal is to help providers present students with more opportunities to develop knowledge and skills and practice what they learn to prepare them for the workforce and as citizens.
