Who We Are
Everyone at Peerceptiv is dedicated to the power of learning through peer collaboration: colleague-to-colleague and student-to-student. We grew out of two decades of research at the University of Pittsburgh’s Learning Research and Development Center, one of the world’s leading interdisciplinary learning research centers. The science of peer learning efficiently offers organizations, institutions, and schools better learning outcomes and valid skills data, at any scale.
