We are Indiana’s Learning Community.
Together, with creative contributions from educational leaders across our state, Keep Indiana Learning is transforming the face of professional learning. The result? Relevant, engaging, and equitable learning opportunities for all Indiana students.
In partnership with the Educational Service Centers of Indiana, KInL is supported by educational stakeholders across the state. The Central Indiana Educational Service Center (CIESC) launched Keep Indiana Learning (KInL) in 2020 as another of its innovative programs and services that enhance academic achievement and operational efficiencies.
The Keep Indiana Learning community creates a space where educators can connect and learn from peers. It’s a learning experience by Indiana educators, for Indiana educators.
The landscape of education is changing. Now, more than ever, our collective teacher voice needs to be used and heard.
