E-Competencies deadline this Friday

By  | 9/22/2008 | Filed under: General

 

This is just a reminder that the submission deadline to participate in this FLACSO-México, University of Minnesota and University of Toronto co-organized event on e-competencies and e-skills is coming up this Friday (September 26).  Participants can join in person or virtually, and need not present to join the event (although presentations are encouraged!). We already have many outstanding proposals from throughout the Americas (and beyond), and welcome a few more!  Feel free to contact me with questions, etc., at moravec@umn.edu.

More information is at the conference website: www.e-competencies.org (or, in Spanish: www.e-competencias.org).
