Case Study: Dyslexia Training Institute achieves 430% attendance growth and global reach with iCohere's online learning platform

How Two Women With Young Children Are Changing Dyslexia Training

Dyslexia Training Institute, founded by Dr. Kelli Sandman-Hurley and Tracy Block-Zaretsky, faced the challenge of delivering high-quality dyslexia training to a geographically dispersed audience while preserving the peer-to-peer interaction central to their model. As new mothers who could not travel extensively, they needed a way to scale nationally and internationally without sacrificing community or flexibility, so they evaluated and selected iCohere and its Unified Learning platform.

Using the iCohere Unified Learning platform, DTI launched an online campus with virtual classrooms, discussion boards, recorded archives, video streaming, and a secure resource center to replicate in-person interaction and support. The iCohere solution helped DTI expand course offerings for educators, health professionals, and parents, grow attendance by over 430% since the 2012 online launch, and reach students in countries including Peru, Pakistan, India, Australia, Belize, and Nigeria.
