ABOUT ZIA LEARNING

Founded in 2011 by Robin Gonzales, a seasoned educator with a deep-rooted passion for improving education, Zia Learning has emerged as a leading provider of custom curriculum development and professional development services across the United States. Our journey began within the heart of Chicago, where Robin’s firsthand experience as a classroom teacher, school-level director, and district-level official for Chicago Public Schools shaped our commitment to creating impactful solutions for educators and students.

​

With over 3,000 vetted and dedicated educators, curriculum experts, and instructional designers, we have a proven track record of developing tailored solutions that address the unique challenges and opportunities facing school districts nationwide. Our expertise spans ELA, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, World Languages, and CTE, ensuring comprehensive and effective curriculum development. We are particularly proud of our nationally recognized UDL expertise, which enables us to create inclusive learning experiences for all students, including English Learners and Students with Disabilities.

OUR MISSION

At Zia Learning, our mission is to empower educators and enhance student outcomes through innovative curriculum development and professional learning. We are dedicated to building strong partnerships with schools and districts to create customized solutions that drive student achievement and prepare them for success in the 21st century.

BETTER TOGETHER

In 2024, Zia Learning joined forces with CSA Education, a renowned leader in education content development. This strategic partnership brings together decades of experience, expertise, and resources to create an unparalleled offering for the education industry. Together, we provide a comprehensive suite of services, including professional learning, curriculum development, and content alignment, to support schools and districts of all sizes.

OUR COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY
