Teachers, School heads, innovators and ICT teachers
The core elements of the 21 Century Learning Design program include:

- Educators leading their own collaboration circles, supporting one another as they advance their own innovative teaching practices
- A focus on redesigning learning to develop 21st Century skills and deepen learning of curricular goals
- Using the new learning designs in their own teaching and analyzing the impact on learning
- Sharing new learning activities with other educators locally and globally
- Measuring changes in innovative teaching practices
The training is designed so that a facilitator can guide educators through the materials, and so that educators can then serve as guides to other educators in their schools or networks. 21st Century Learning Design content is divided into 4 sections
