Our Mini Courses

Time is a finite resource, especially during the school year. We have created a library of mini-courses as an asynchronous learning opportunity that can be done on your own time and from the comfort of whatever space you choose.  These courses are specific and quick, so you can design your own learning journey for as much or as little time as you are able to dedicate.

“If knowledge is a power, then learning is a superpower.”
