This summer a number of MCCL members attended the MCL National Summit in Rapid City, South Dakota. Breakout & Deep Dive Sessions were offered by Rich Eby & Elizabeth LeBlanc from Pequea Valley, Elizabeth Firnkes, Crystal Priest, Kit Canning, & Travis Works from Cornville, Cheryl Lang from MSAD 44, and Linda Laughlin, MCCL Executive Director. Thank you to all of these folks who traveled to Rapid City.

A full set of MCL Learning Paths designed by authors, Bea McGarvey and Chuck Schwahn, were release as part of the National Summit. You can access those learning paths @ https://www.eduplanet21.com/marketplace/

These learning paths have been revised and arranged into “series” which makes each of them equivalent to about a half day workshop day. Think differently about how you are building capacity and consider providing different options/choices to your staff. There is still a place for face-to-face training opportunities but there are also more online training opportunities available that will help you provide your staff with different options (asynchronous & synchronous) for how they build their understanding.

Bea McGarvey’s learning paths can be used to build an understanding in each of MCL’s 8 MCL Interdependent Components. These learning paths are being offered at “bundle” prices. For as low as $25/seat you will be able to offer several additional learning experiences for your staff. If you are interested in purchasing a bundle set of seats (50 or more) please contact Executive Director, Linda Laughlin at: [email protected]

MCCL is also in the process of building additional learning paths and e-libriries that support and complement the learning paths built by authors, Bea McGarvey & Chuck Schwahn. More details to come!!
