August 20th Continuing Ed Session - CoSIDA Resources: Committees, Continuing Ed, Mentorship & More

CoSIDA has expanded its 2015-16 continuing education programming, moving to a monthly series beginning with a session on Thursday, August 20. Capital One will serve as the presenting sponsor for this year's continuing education programming.

Beginning in August 2015, CoSIDA 3rd Vice President Rob Knox (Coppin State University Director of Sports Information) and the CoSIDA Continuing Education Committee are coordinating our live webinar/conference call continuing education program for the 2015-16 academic year. See the monthly schedule for the fall semester below. The Continuing Education Committee is co-chaired by Clark Teuscher, North Central College Sports Information Director and Jeff Schwartz, Senior Associate Director of Athletic Communications at North Dakota State University.

On Thursday, April 20, we invite all CoSIDA members to join us for a 45-minute continuing education call on "CoSIDA Resources: Committees, Continuing Ed, Mentorship & More." The session, which can be accessed online via a CoverItLive blog and via phone, begins at 2 p.m. Eastern.

We will have a CoverItLive blog so you can ask your questions or comment
 during the continuing ed sessions. If you are unable to join us, we will provide on-demand access to the audio, transcript and blog from each call. The Fastscript transcripts are provided by corporate partner ASAP Sports, CoSIDA's Instant Transcript Provider.

We welcome your comments, questions and suggestions on both! (See below for how to submit your questions.)
