Faculty/Staff Workshops & Training
Events Calendar Policy
Purpose: The primary purpose of the LEARN (Learning Enhancement, Assessment, and Research Network) Center Campus Events Calendar is to notify faculty and staff of the faculty development activities offered on campus which are sponsored by the LEARN Center. Such activities include reading/discussion group meetings; faculty development workshops; first year program (tenure-track faculty) meetings; chairs' council meetings, and teaching scholars program meetings.
Who Can Submit: LEARN Center staff will submit calendar dates for all activities conducted through the LEARN Center.
