Sloan-C Online Workshops

OTS sponsors Towson?s membership to Sloan-C. With this membership, a limited number of Towson faculty members can attend two or more of the workshops below for free. Normally, these workshops cost $350 – $500 each. All courses are offered in a fully online format and require a time commitment over one or more weeks. These workshops are facilitated by an instructor and are asynchronous; i.e., there is no need to be at your computer at a specific time.

TO REGISTER, contact Sloan-C coordinator for CIAT: Audrey Cutler (x4-5082 or {acutler@towson.edu}).
