Institutes on Teaching Social Action
The in-person and virtual institutes are our signature training for faculty and staff (who can teach) who want to teach this experiential model that has students do change and democracy.
There is no registration fee for these Institutes, but in return we ask that attendees commit to develop a social action course in the 18 months following the Institute and complete these four commitments.
