Our poster presents a phenomenological description of the community aspects of a Community of Practice (CoP) among educational developers across academic institutions. We illustrate the meaning and value facilitators place in their CoP participation, especially a heightened sense of care. We also contribute to organizational knowledge about the unique importance of across-institutional CoPs in educational development. We invite poster attendees to:
1) reflect on sustaining features of CoPs that they belong to;
2) reflect on the implications for similar CoPs as we Re:Start from the pandemic;
3) Re:Imagine post-pandemic ED practices; and
4) Re:Connect with like-minded colleagues.
