TCC: RSVP for the Winter Teaching Institute by today!

Join us on Wednesday, January 18, for the 2023 Winter Teaching Institute!  Due to a scheduling conflict, we will be hosting the Winter Teaching Institute from the Brighton Campus this year.  We look forward to returning to the Downtown Campus next year. 

There will also be some remote options for certain sessions.  The WTI will include a light breakfast at 8:30am and opening remarks by Kimberley Collins, followed by three morning sessions and lunch.  The afternoon will include additional sessions on specialized topics. 

There are two options for attending the Winter Teaching Institute this year: In-person and remote.  When RSVPing, select one session for each time if you are attending in-person.  If you prefer to attend remote options only, please select the “Online Attendance” ticket.  The Zoom links for those 5 sessions will be emailed to you in January prior to the WTI.  

Please RSVP by Tuesday, January 3rd, 2023.  To RSVP, complete the Evenbrite form 

Contact Erin Strobl (estrobl@monroecc.edu) if you have any questions.
