Partnership for 21st Century Skills Adds Learning.com to Strategic Council

The Partnership for 21st Century Skills has added Learning.com to its strategic council.

The Partnership for 21st Century Skills is a coalition of business and education groups focused on "21st century readiness for all students." The group provides the Framework for 21st Century Learning, a roadmap for education centered around skills-focused learning.

Cliff Green, Learning.com's vice president of education and customer experience, will represent the company. In his role on the council at P21, Green will work "closely with other P21 members and sharing our perspective on how to best support schools as they implement digital content."

"We are delighted to add Learning.com's digital learning expertise to P21," said Stephan Turnipseed, chair of P21 and president emeritus and executive director of strategic partnerships at Lego Education, in a prepared statement. "We look forward to having a strong collaborative partner in Learning.com and expanding our powerful network of advocates in support of 21st century teaching and learning for college, career and citizenship."
