Who Should Attend

Faculty and staff with responsibilities or an interest in faculty development should attend. Distance education and online course developers and coordinators should attend. Faculty chairs and deans are invited. And any teacher or faculty member interested may attend.

The information in the Institute is specific to online and hybrid courses, but much of it is relevant and useful for traditional classroom instruction as well.

Institutions are encouraged to send a team of two people. Studies show that a team of two people take back more information and ideas for your institution.

Attendance will be limited to allow maximum involvement, attention and interaction with the presenters.

Your presenters are some of the foremost authorities in faculty development and online instruction. They are authors of leading books in higher education, as well as sought-after conference speakers and consultants.
