The Bridges 2e Center for Research and Professional Development is a hub where professionals, scholars, and practitioners combine their expertise to enhance understanding of the growing population of 2e students. The Center offers tools for professionals, online courses for students, and resources for parents. Bridges 2e Media, publisher of 2eNews.com and Variations^2e magazine, provides news and perspectives on twice-exceptional education and cognitive diversity. The Bridges Graduate School for Cognitive Diversity in Education offers certificate, master’s, and doctoral programs for professionals aspiring to be leaders of positive change in the programs and careers. Drawing from the fields of education and positive psychology, the programs explore the intersection of cognitive diversity, talent, interest, and motivation as they relate to gifted, regular, and special education, and to the more complex profiles of 2e students.
