COFLT is excited to offer one-day in-person and virtual Spring Workshops. Each workshop is three hours long. There will be three workshop options in the morning and three options in the afternoon.

New for this year: One session in the morning and one in the afternoon will be virtual. Workshop participants that attend in person can attend these workshops as the presenter will be on Zoom in a classroom. Participants who cannot attend in person but would still like professional development can attend the virtual workshops from anywhere for a reduced rate!
