Wayfinding OnlineNavigating the Virtual Landscape Together Fall Design Lab Series

Dear 3CSN Wayfinding Community,

We hope that this email finds you well and safe.

Over the summer we offered a series of free four-part Design Labs to provide community college professionals and students the opportunity to come together with colleagues across the state to delve more deeply into course and program design. The response was overwhelming, and these sessions reached capacity quickly. Many of you asked for an opportunity to participate in the fall.

We are pleased to let you know that registration is now open for these fall Design Labs!
Professional learning badges will be awarded for completion and may be used for flex credit (check with your campus for eligibility). Read more about these sessions and register below! Each registration covers all four sessions.
Updated Title and Dates!
