HigherEdHero audio workshops? Zoya Hamilton 30 Jun 2009 08:01 EST
Dear Colleagues, I was asked by one of the departments about the value of this educational opportunity (the cost is $200). Did anyone take courses from HigherEdHero before? From what I can tell from looking at their website, they've been offering workshops at least since 2007. Thanks very much as always.
