Learn about the OLC Institute Mastery Series Program
Concurrent Session 5

Brief Abstract
The Online Learning Consortium’s Mastery Series emphasizes theory and application of research on key topics, resulting in a Recognition of Mastery in a topic area. Each Mastery Series consists of three workshops that allow you the opportunity to explore relevant research, collaborate with like-minded individuals in the field, and help you to apply what you learn to design an effective teaching and learning environment. Workshops are one week in length with a three-week break period between sessions to allow for assimilation, reflection, and integration into your practice.
