eXtension helps Cooperative Extension professionals make an impact on local issues through two main programs: Issue Response and Innovation Lab. Issue Response enables professionals to develop, implement, and assess solutions to current and emerging issues. The Innovation Lab discovers, incubates, assesses, and fosters adoption of new working methods through fellowships, projects, and collaboration with education technology communities. Together, these programs provide a national digital presence and response system to address issues at both local and national scales.
