The FLEXspace initiative is a large collaborative effort that started in the State University System of New York and quickly spread. 

FLEXspace – The Flexible Learning Environments eXchange – is an innovative tool that supports a highly-engaged community of experts, decision makers, influencers, and practitioners from higher education, K-12, libraries, museums and industry committed to improve learning space planning, design and implementation.

FLEXspace provides a sophisticated suite of features that allow users to document and showcase learning spaces, share resources and best practices, work collaboratively with campus colleagues and partners, and connect with an ever-expanding worldwide community. Use FLEXspace to help you plan, design, implement, maintain, assess, and improve your campus learning spaces. FLEXspace membership is free for academic users, and available to others through partnership support.

FLEXspace users include anyone tasked with planning, design, implementation, and assessment of campus learning spaces, as well as the instructors who use these spaces:

• Academic technology leaders
• Campus buyers
• Designers
• Facilities planners
• Faculty
• Librarians
• Managers
