With funding from Colorado Campus Compact, Colorado College and UCCS are proud to host an Education Symposium dedicated to highly specialized areas of classroom learning and teaching. Many new teachers report a lack of knowledge and experience to handle such issues as the urban education experience, ELL students, behavioral disorders, special education in the traditional classroom and autism. Come join us for a series of workshops by local experts, and earn in-service credit if you work in School District 11.
