The NNERPP community has been deeply exploring brokering practices and how to support RPP brokers for several years. Here, we share more context of this work and highlight four new brokering cases that add to our understanding of several aspects of brokering in RPPs.

COLLABORATIVE EDUCATION RESEARCH and RPP BROKERING: SPOTLIGHT ON TWO RECENT RESOURCES FOR THOSE ENGAGING IN CER and RPPs
Are you engaging in collaborative education research endeavors and/or participating in RPP brokering activities? We share about two recently published resources that you might want to use in your RPP learning.
INTRODUCING THE NNERPP RPP BROKERS HANDBOOK, V. 2
Brokers in RPPs are an essential component for helping researchers and practitioners work together on research that supports improvements in education, serving as the bridge between the research and practice communities within partnerships. Despite this critical connector role, brokers are often undervalued or not given the importance they deserve. We introduce Version 2 of the RPP Brokers Handbook, which codifies the work of brokers in RPPs, thereby identifying the specific and essential role they play in enabling public scholarship and social impact.
THE ROLE OF BROKERS IN RESEARCH-PRACTICE PARTNERSHIPS
As partnerships increasingly ponder the specific roles that might be essential to the success of RPPs, Carrie Conaway, Erin O’Hara, and Jessica Vasan share key insights on their experiences serving as brokers, or boundary spanners, in RPPs.
