About NICs (Networked Improvement Communities)
A Networked Improvement Community is a group of subject matter experts, thought leaders and implementation specialists, working together to achieve a common goal, with the aim of utilizing their collective efforts and ingenuity to address a specific challenge. These are thoughtfully designed social organizations, each with its own unique focus on solving specific problems. They have a compelling narrative that outlines their purpose and reasons for being affiliated with them.
As a scientific community for learning, NICs are driven by a clearly defined shared objective, informed by a comprehensive understanding of the problem and its causes, guided by a shared theory for improvement, and using the methods of improvement science to develop, evaluate, and refine solutions. The organizations are structured to speed up the implementation of these solutions in a variety of educational settings and are designed to ensure effective integration.
