    Introducing the Jamaica Partners for Educational Progress Community of Practice (CoP)
    On-demand access to information, knowledge and practical experience related to education

Jamaica Partners for Educational Progress is an initiative of USAID/Jamaica. It is a country-level Community of Practice that connects education stakeholders to share knowledge and experiences, to get or offer help, to discuss timely and critical issues, to contribute to policy development and to collectively help advance the field of basic education. This CoP provides an opportunity for individuals to learn from and grow professionally with one other, to increase the effectiveness of their individual efforts, and to contribute to the strengthening of the Jamaica education system.

What an interesting and exciting year this has been! Last June, the Facilitation Team hit the ground running by consulting 50 stakeholders in the education sector to introduce the CoP and learn how the community can support their efforts to improve basic education in Jamaica.  Thanks to the contributions from these individuals, the Jamaica Partners for Educational Progress CoP has become the relevant, engaging and continuously growing community that it is today.

Let me wish all the members of our community a very productive and special 2011. We have started the year on a sober note, coming from the high of the December launch of our Community to the reality that there is much work to be done to improve basic education for all our children.
