ANNOUNCING MOVE UNITED'S EDUCATION HUB
Move United celebrates ambition and we hold ourselves to it. That is why by 2028, we have set the goal to become the national leader and the #1 resource in adaptive sports. The Move United Education Hub, a best-in-class and fully accessible learning management system, elevates the way the adaptive sports industry receives and retains fundamental knowledge to support the disabled community.

The Move United Education Hub, a best-in-class and fully accessible learning management system, elevates the way the adaptive sports industry receives and retains fundamental knowledge to support the disabled community. The Education Hub allows Move United to deliver critical knowledge to national headquarter staff, its membership network and partners at any time, on any device – empowering adaptive sport professionals to perform their best, increase expertise and skill, and deepen the commitment and contribution to our industry.

The Education Hub offers strategic, engaging and individualized e-learning courses covering a variety of topics by program, sport, skill and degree of expertise. To strengthen the future of adaptive sports and reach our Vision 2028 goals, our success is contingent on the learning and development of not only our national headquarter staff, member network, and partners, but the American public who is largely overdue to close the gap between individuals with and without disabilities.
