iwin.

iwin connects the dots between rigorous academic research and effective organizations. Our research is informed by theory and guided by the need for innovative, practical solutions. We connect employers to these solutions by building, understanding and translating the research, creating applied tools and resources, influencing policy makers, and helping employers develop the workforce. But we don't stop there. We also help connect organizations to each other by fostering a regional employer learning community, where employers can learn from both local and national experts, and from of course, each other.
