I left with an action plan and goal to affect change in our community to improve the lives of the people we serve. The presenters were captivating, knowledgeable, and provided so much insight and information, and I am very excited to re-watch the recordings and absorb everything I possibly can." — Kyla C., Circulation Supervisor | Request a discount for groups of 3 or more and work with your colleagues on a project for your library. | Purchase packages of course tickets that you can allocate to your staff as needed and apply to our full roster of courses.
