Spring Pilot a SUCCESS!
 We have had more 5
times as many staff and faculty enrollments as we had in ALL of spring
2011, so our spring
semester pilot offering free workshops to IU staff and faculty
has been a great success! We have also had more than 75 workshops fill up,
but we are adding new workshop sessions to meet the demand. You won't find
these new sessions listed in our paper schedule, so check our web
site for the most up-to-date schedule. There you can read
workshop descriptions and register for the sessions that best fit your
schedule!
Read more about the pilot's success on the UITS Project Page.
