What people say about this workshop... 

I appreciated the instructor's & director's warm welcome & willingness to work with me to improve my course proposal.

- This class was super helpful - it provided me with a detailed description of the user-friendly material​ - ​I came away with a much better understanding of what is expected from the course proposal.
