Summer Training Opportunities

We have several training opportunities this summer starting with the E-Portfolio Workshop facilitated by Phyllis Dobson from May 24 – June 11.

An E-Portfolio is thoughtful collection of files in an electronic format which demonstrate academic work, reflection, work experience and other activities presented in various media formats ( text, audio, image, and video). Students as well as faculty can create an e-portfolio for personal use to organize and display artifacts, reflect on experiences and electronically share the portfolio with others.

The E-Portfolio workshop will introduce you to the Folio program (e-portfolio software) which is available free to students and instructors through collaborative efforts of the Colorado Department of Education, Department of Labor, the Community College System and other workforce professional groups. You will receive a login, learn how to upload artifacts, create and share portfolios for different purposes. You will also gain insight into using this type of assessment tool with your students.

If you are interested in registering for this training or other training opportunities, go to the Faculty Gateway and click on Training Registration. If you have any questions, please contact me directly at Karen.kaemmerling@cccs.edu
