USRowing is delighted to announce Acorn PLMS (Performance Learning Management System) as the official learning partner for the organization. This collaboration will unlock transformative learning and development programs for athletes, coaches, member organizations, and the broader USRowing community in the years to come.

Acorn PLMS is robust yet easy-to-use, offering USRowing members engaging and relevant education opportunities based on the latest principles in contextual learning, instructional design, and concept retention. By unifying online learning onto a single platform with 24/7 availability on any device, members will be able to learn what they want, when they want. Whether an administrator trying to build a sustainable program, a coach seeking professional development, or an athlete dreaming of the podium, enrichment and support will always be close at hand.

Amanda Kraus, CEO of USRowing, commented on the partnership, saying, "Our collaboration with Acorn will play a crucial role in our sport's future. With Acorn's innovative approach to learning and performance we can empower athletes, coaches, and our member organizations with the theoretical and practical knowledge, resources, and skills for achieving their goals, from growing our sport at the grassroots level to achieving Olympic and Paralympic success."

Acorn's platform will offer certification tracking and recognition, peer-to-peer discussion forums, and personalized learning paths driven by artificial intelligence — all seamlessly integrated with the USRowing member portal. The platform's efficient program designs enable members to confidently and efficiently achieve tangible results so they can step away from the screen and get back to the boats.

Blake Proberts, Co-Founder and CEO of Acorn, expressed his enthusiasm for this landmark partnership, stating, "We are thrilled to join forces with USRowing as their official learning partner. Acorn's mission is to revolutionize the way organizations learn and perform, and USRowing's commitment to excellence and community alignment makes them the perfect partner. We share a vision of fostering growth, cultivating expertise, and developing champions, both on and off the water."
