Creating a Community of Shared Knowledge, Values, and Vision 

Our intention is to share and discuss common, important topics relevant to all campus IT professionals by providing a one-day experience to establish a shared vocabulary, contemporary context, and hear from the participants, academic, and administrative executives.

We will begin with the Flipped Classroom Model, which allows staff to receive an introduction to the day's topics well in advance of IT Foundations in August. Not only does the Flipped Classroom Model save time, but it allows for a more interactive, immersive experience and everyone can learn at their own pace.
