If you want to understand Communities of Practice you couldn’t do better than join John Smith, Etienne Wenger and Bronwyn Stuckey on their online exploration of CoPs (see announcement below). You might also like to know that CPSquare members, a community of practice for community of practice practitioners, have an RSS feed which aggregates all our blogs.

The next “Foundations of Communities of Practice” workshop starts SOON — on Monday September 11th!  It’s an extraordinary experience for many people (including the organisers: Etienne Wenger, Bronwyn Stuckey and I — and a wonderful bunch of guest speakers and mentors who generously contribute their time and expertise :-).

One participant in the Spring Workshop said something like, “This is the most brilliant e-learning design I’ve ever seen.”  At the moment I can’t put my hands on it and I haven’t for his permission, but it really did make me feel good and, although it’s a pretty big commitment to participate in this workshop, it is an investment you won’t regret!

More details about the workshop and the registration form are here:
