Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration

Igniting a passion for learning, expanding boundaries, changing lives!

We provide children and educators with inspiring and engaging virtual cultural experiences that connect young minds to unique and diverse content, bringing the world to each student and closing the opportunity gap.  We bring live interactive field trips into classrooms from treasured museums, zoos, and historic, scientific and cultural centers from around the globe, helping kids to better connect to learning.

We don’t believe in the have and have nots – 

...not all kids arrive at school ready to learn at the same level…

We believe all children deserve access to powerful educational opportunities that connect students to learning in and out of the classroom. Each school, family, and community face unique barriers that require assistance to inspire kids to connect more meaningfully to learning. CILC brings the world of field trips into classrooms from across the globe to prompt joy and spark a curiosity for knowledge.
