Learning Mobility Lab
The Learning Mobility Lab is ÐãÉ«Ö±²¥’s year-round innovation platform, created to accelerate meaningful progress on the most urgent challenges in learning mobility. It brings together cross-sector leaders, including institutional practitioners, policymakers, technologists, funders, and learners, to test new ideas, share actionable data, and scale breakthrough solutions that improve how learning is documented, recognized, and applied across pathways.
The Lab operates as both a community and a catalyst, supporting continuous improvement through coordinated campaigns, design experiments, and applied research. Its goal is to transform how institutions evaluate credit, credentials, and competencies in more transparent, equitable, and efficient ways for all learners.
Two signature components define the Lab’s annual cycle of action:
The Assembly
Held in person each year, The Assembly is the Learning Mobility Lab’s flagship event and the next evolution of ÐãÉ«Ö±²¥’s Technology and Transfer conferences. Guided by the work of ÐãÉ«Ö±²¥’s Tech and Transfer advisory group and shaped by member feedback, The Assembly is far more than a traditional conference. It is a space for the community to convene, align on national progress, showcase innovations, and co-design the future of learning mobility. At The Assembly, collaboration drives action, turning ideas into real systems change.
The ÐãÉ«Ö±²¥ National Learning Mobility Challenge
Each year, the Lab launches a bold, unifying campaign to focus the community's efforts on a critical issue. In 2025–2026, the inaugural ÐãÉ«Ö±²¥ National Learning Mobility Challenge tackles the persistent barriers that delay or complicate transfer decisions, encouraging institutions to mobilize and partners to design and implement strategies that improve Transfer Time-To-Decision. This initiative will combine technical assistance, shared metrics, and peer learning to drive measurable change across institutions and systems.
Together, The Assembly and the Learning Mobility Challenge form the backbone of a year-round movement, one that’s reimagining how learners move, grow, and succeed.
