The continuing education workshops listed in the link above above have already been implemented as live online events and are now available for review on this Web site. While many of these events were developed for middle school coordinators (MSCs), they remain relevant at all levels. They contain valuable information, activities, and resources on key topics in the strategic planning and program delivery process. You may view and download the materials that were available to coordinators when the events were actually conducted. This includes summaries of the online discussions among event participants and Center staff.
