A Continuous Learning Framework, sometimes referred to as a Comprehensive Accountability Framework, is a system-wide, strategic plan of practices that builds regenerative communities and transforms district cultures. This customized framework is anchored on the vision, mission, goals, objectives, and strategies of an organization but goes much, much deeper. Through a Continuous Learning Framework, all members of an organization are connected in cycles of deep implementation and continuous improvement that guarantee results. The explanations and interviews below will provide some information about how school districts and states are developing, implementing, and sustaining their Continuous Learning Frameworks.
