EDspaces is where education leaders come to understand how space influences learning, wellbeing, safety, and long-term success—and how to translate that understanding into smarter decisions for their schools, campuses, and districts.

The EDspaces Scholarship Program exists to ensure that limited budgets don’t prevent you from participating in the conversations, insights, and experiences that directly inform better learning environments.

Why EDspaces Matters.

Today’s learning environments must do more than house instruction; they must actively support student engagement, equity, health, and performance. At EDspaces, you gain practical, real-world insight into how design, planning, and operational decisions shape outcomes across the entire campus.

You’ll leave with:

  • Actionable strategies for upcoming projects
  • Peer-driven insight from educators with similar constraints
  • Confidence to justify decisions to leadership and boards
  • Ideas you can apply immediately

What You’ll Experience at EDspaces

  • Real-world learning environments in actionsee how spaces are planned, furnished, and used across the full campus, not just the classroom
  • Educator-led conversations that move beyond theory into what actually works, what doesn’t, and why
  • Applied learning sessions grounded in current challenges like safety, equity, flexibility, and budget constraints
  • Early alignment with solution partners—architects, designers, and manufacturers who help translate ideas into implementable projects
  • Time and space to think differently—away from daily demands, with peers who understand your constraints
