Educating your co-op
Education is one of the co-operative principles and is a cornerstone for any effective housing co-op. But how can we practice this principle more meaningfully? Through exploring strategies to incorporate education into the co-op’s operational framework and tools to act on them, we will show that education can be embedded into your co-op’s culture.
Governing a successful and healthy housing co-op and overseeing its management demands diverse skill and knowledge. The good news is that not everyone needs to know, or be able to do, everything. Explore the why, who, what, and how of effective education.
Be ready to support your co-op’s goals with learning opportunities.
