The annual Scholarship of Teaching and Learning Conference is a professional development opportunity created especially for faculty members to build your expertise as teaching professionals.
This year’s conference focuses on maintaining a healthy balance in a demanding profession in which it is all too easy to become over-extended. Join Lisa McMinn as she speaks from her book, The Contented Soul. The conference includes a keynote address from Dr. McMinn, time for Q&A, and a hands-on workshop guided by Dr. McMinn.
