Center for Advanced Professional Studies
CAPS programs are nationally recognized innovative high school programs. Students fast forward into their future and are immersed in a professional culture, solving real-world problems, using industry tools, and are mentored by actual employers, all while receiving high school and college credit. CAPS is an example of how business, community and public education can partner to produce personalized learning experiences that educate the workforce of tomorrow.
Network for Experiential Teaching & Learning
Based in Northeastern’s Graduate School of Education, NExT serves as a free, collaborative platform where our members develop high-impact experiential teaching and learning practices; share ideas, lesson plans, and other resources; generate and distribute research-based in school and classroom practices; and advance their own professional development through timely, relevant and accessible programming. We’re here to help you connect, collaborate and thrive.
