Frederick Brown will succeed Denise Glyn Borders as Learning Forward’s new president & CEO, effective July 1. Brown, who most recently served as Learning Forward’s chief learning officer/deputy, said that the opportunity to lead Learning Forward in its work to bring high-quality professional learning to every educator is an honor.
“Learning Forward’s unique and essential focus on creating evidence-based systems of support for all educators has never been more important for our students’ futures,” Brown said. “I am deeply committed to the work and the people of this organization, and I am grateful to the board of trustees for this opportunity.”
Since joining Learning Forward in 2010, Brown has held multiple leadership roles and co-authored The Learning Principal: Becoming a Learning Leader and Becoming a Learning System.
Borders retires from Learning Forward at the end of June.
