Learning culture refers to the shared values and practices within an organization that shape, promote, and reflect the organization's commitment to continuous learning, growth, and adaptation. In a thriving learning culture, individuals are encouraged and supported to acquire new skills, knowledge, and perspectives. Learning is seen as a collective, ongoing process, not a one-time event. An organization with a vibrant learning culture prioritizes professional development, reflection, and innovation while valuing curiosity and the ability to learn from failures as well as successes. The department of Learning Culture & Innovation along with its web site, The Center for Learning Culture (The Center, for short), was created in 2023 with these principles in mind.
