    Live Cohort Courses

    When multiple NYSERNet community members enroll in the same StormWind course, we create a Learning Cohort experience designed to turn individual training into collaborative, peer-driven development.

    Our cohorts go beyond simply watching online classes — they bring together IT professionals, security leaders, and network engineers from across the NYSERNet community to learn together, share insights, and stay accountable.

    Each cohort experience includes:

    community and Connection2

    Community & Connection

    • A dedicated private Slack channel for your cohort, where members can exchange ideas, ask questions, and share resources in real time.

    • An opportunity to network with peers across higher education, healthcare, and research institutions facing similar technical and organizational challenges.

    Guided Engagmentment

    Guided Engagement

    • Optional virtual meet-ups led by NYSERNet’s Education Services team, where participants discuss progress, clarify concepts, and exchange practical use cases.

    • Guest drop-ins from NYSERNet subject matter experts or partners who can connect course content to real-world projects.

    account and Support2

    Accountability & Support

    • Accountability partners matched within your cohort to help keep learning momentum strong.

    • Shared milestones and check-ins to ensure you finish strong and apply what you learn.

    • Access to recordings and supplemental materials to revisit lessons at your own pace.

    By joining a cohort, you gain more than a certificate — you gain a community of practice that continues to grow your knowledge and network long after the course ends.

    👉 Cohorts are formed automatically when two or more members register for the same StormWind course.
