Today! Virtual Teaching and Learning Conference Begins

The Transforming the Teaching & Learning Environment virtual conference is sponsored by NOVA Academic Affairs and the office of Faculty Professional Development, and is presented by Northeastern State University. The conference offers the opportunity for NOVA faculty and staff to engage with Higher Ed experts from around the world.  This conference is free for NOVA faculty and staff. We have sponsored an institutional registration, so that you can simply access conference sessions using your @nvcc.edu email address.

Overview
The conference begins today, Feb. 1 and concludes on Friday, Feb. 12. Each weekday there will be six one-hour sessions using Zoom as the platform.  Each session will be captioned.  The conference website has more information about using Zoom.
