Come for the Classes. Stay for the Community.
Our award-winning faculty use evidence-based research and peer-reviewed publications to engage learners, empower educators, and train leaders.
Our clubs ignite the community in compelling discussion forums, real-time messaging, and live events about how religion intersects with the arts, business, education, history, human rights, law, politics, race, and science.
Our interactive courses use the WISE method to captivate the imaginations of learners of all ages.
W – Watch compelling videos.
I – Interact with retention games.
S – Study with leading experts.
E – Engage with the community.
FOR LEARNERS
Learners who complete a collection of courses earn a professional certificate that can be synced with and featured on your LinkedIn profile. In addition, learners use the Job Board to search for employment and the Headlines feeds to stay informed.
FOR EDUCATORS
Rather than assign a textbook, high school educators and college professors assign the micro-courses to supplement their syllabi. As a result, their students gain access to multimedia resources and a dynamic social learning community.
FOR LEADERS
Professionals use the clubs and courses to sharpen their skills and broaden their social networks. Business leaders engage in training about diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Journalists connect with scholars of religion to accurately report on religion. Campus leaders, school principals, and school board members learn about the legal and educational frameworks that inform academic communities.
CIVIC EDUCATION FOR THE COMMON GOOD
We apply the U.S. Department of Education’s Consensus Statements about Constitutional Approaches for Teaching about Religion:
▸ Our approach to religion is academic, not devotional;
▸ We strive for student awareness of religions, but do not press for student acceptance of any religion;
▸ We sponsor the study about religion, not the practice of religion;
▸ We expose students to a diversity of religious views, but may not impose any particular view;
▸ We educate about all religions, we do not promote or denigrate any religion;
▸ We inform students about religious beliefs and practices, it does not seek to conform students to any particular belief or practice.
