Browse learning circlesAbout Us
Learning circles are free study groups for people who want to learn new things with others. This format of peer learning was started by Peer 2 Peer University (P2PU) in 2015 and has spread to libraries and community centers across the globe. You can see all of the learning circles happening across our team on this website. If you have any questions or need any accommodations in order to attend a learning circle please reach out to the facilitator directly.
Interested in running your own learning circle? Check out the facilitation resources at www.p2pu.org/facilitate and contact the library to learn more.

Learning Circles FAQ
When you sign up for a learning circle, your email address and information provided in the signup form will be shared with the facilitator of the learning circle. You should expect to receive at least one email when you sign up, one email per meeting and maybe one or two other emails from your facilitator with extra information and/or a request to provide your feedback on the experience. Additionally, if you opt-in to hearing about future learning opportunities from P2PU, you will receive infrequent emails (4 messages per year or less) from P2PU. If at any point you’d like to withdraw consent, you can do so by following the instructions included in all messages we send you. Alternatively, you can also withdraw consent on this page.
If you’d like more information, you can review our privacy policy, terms of service or contact us at privacy@p2pu.org.
