Professional Development for Educators Summer 2016 

 From the Desk of Katherine Berger Kaye
Cathy Kaye <cathy@cbkassociates.com>

This summer I offer four institutes -- one 3-day Foundations of Service Learning in Atlanta, a 3-day Advanced Institute on Service Learning again at Carey Conference Center in NY, and a 2-day Institute on Service Learning in Ohio. Also, after the Advanced institute, I am holding an institute on How to be a Great Presenter beginning on Wednesday dinner through Friday at 3:00. This is an extremely small gathering guaranteeing personal attention and if you are interested in attending, please email me as soon as possible to hold you place. Registration will increase starting May 16. I guarantee this will be helpful on many levels. Educators have requested this often so now's the time! Additional information is found in the attached document. Educators at K-12 through university are most welcome, along with preservice teachers, and organizations wanting to advance service learning leadership.
