Cox Campus Launches Free Dyslexia Training Modules for Educators Nationwide
Last updated:
If you’ve ever wondered why your child’s teachers seem to know so little about how to help students who are developing reading skills differently, you’re not alone. The gap between what educators need and what they actually receive in their training has frustrated parents for years. Your instinct is right—most teacher preparation programs haven’t caught up with the science. That’s exactly why a major new initiative is making waves across the country.
TL;DR
Cox Campus has launched free, credit-bearing Literacy & Dyslexia modules in partnership with the UC/CSU Collaborative for Neuroscience, Diversity, and Learning.
The program was developed by Drs. Sue Sears and Maryanne Wolf and includes an International Dyslexia Association-accredited Structured Literacy Certificate Program.
Over 30 states now require evidence-based literacy instruction, yet many teachers lack access to aligned training—these modules address that gap.
The platform serves 400,000+ members across 50 states and 80+ countries, offering PreK-K and K-3 reading science content.
Modules are available free at CoxCampus.org and lms.coxcampus.org/dyslexia for educators, parents, and policymakers.
New Modules Remove Cost and Access Barriers
Cox Campus, a free online learning platform from The Rollins Center for Language & Literacy, has launched new Literacy & Dyslexia modules developed in partnership with the UC/CSU Collaborative for Neuroscience, Diversity, and Learning. The modules, released January 27, 2026, provide credit-bearing professional development at no cost to educators, teacher preparation programs, parents, and policymakers.
The program was developed under the leadership of Dr. Sue Sears and Dr. Maryanne Wolf, two of the most respected researchers in reading science. Dr. Wolf, a UCLA professor and Director of the UCLA Center for Dyslexia, Diverse Learners, and Social Justice, has dedicated her career to understanding how the brain learns to read. The modules are grounded in neuroscience, linguistics, and literacy research, and include an International Dyslexia Association-accredited Structured Literacy Certificate Program.
The need for accessible, evidence-based training has never been more urgent. More than 30 states have now passed legislation requiring evidence-based literacy instruction, yet many educators lack access to high-quality training that aligns with the Science of Reading. Cox Campus reports over 400,000 members across all 50 states and more than 80 countries, demonstrating the demand for such resources.
The platform specifically addresses three barriers that have historically limited teacher preparation: high professional learning costs, limited access to accredited programs, and training that doesn’t align with reading science. For parents supporting children who are developing reading skills through different pathways, this expansion of teacher knowledge represents a significant step forward.
Empowering Parents and Teachers Alike
The modules aren’t just for classroom teachers. Parents, policymakers, and education partners can access the same research-backed content that’s transforming how educators understand reading development. This democratization of knowledge aligns with what neuroscience research has consistently shown: the brain is remarkably capable of building new reading pathways when given the right instruction.
The program offers PreK-K foundational courses and K-3 Science of Reading content, addressing the critical early years when targeted reading intervention has the greatest impact. As the UC/CSU Collaborative states, improving literacy is “one of the great civil rights issues of this generation.”
Key Takeaways:
1
Free, credit-bearing training available: Cox Campus has launched 100% free Literacy & Dyslexia modules developed by leading reading researchers, including an IDA-accredited Structured Literacy Certificate Program.
2
Over 400,000 educators served: The platform now reaches members across all 50 states and 80+ countries, addressing the gap between legislative requirements and teacher preparation.
3
Parents can access same resources: The modules are open to educators, parents, and policymakers alike, democratizing access to evidence-based reading science.
Building a More Informed Education Community
The Rollins Center emphasizes that “literacy is a right, not a privilege”—a message that resonates with parents who have long advocated for evidence-based approaches in their children’s schools. With free access to the same caliber of training that was once available only through expensive programs, the playing field is beginning to level.
The modules are available immediately at CoxCampus.org and lms.coxcampus.org/dyslexia. For parents and educators seeking to understand the science behind reading development, this represents an unprecedented opportunity to access world-class expertise at no cost.
Every child’s brain is capable of building the neural pathways for reading—but only when taught with methods that actually work. For too long, the educational system has left teachers without the training they need and parents without the knowledge to help at home. Cox Campus is proving that access to quality literacy education doesn’t have to be reserved for those who can afford expensive programs. If you’re ready to take action alongside the educators who are finally getting the tools they need, the Learning Success All Access Program offers a free trial that includes a personalized Action Plan—and you keep that plan even if you decide it’s not the right fit.
