Educational Lounges: Quick-Hitting Learning Labs, Tips, Tools & Tricks For Athletic Communications and Creative Professionals

Educational Lounge Series:

Quick-Hitting Learning Labs, Tips, Tools & Tricks For Athletic Communications and Creative Professionals

CoSIDA continues its popular Educational Lounge sessions for the 2021-22 academic year. The on-demand Educational Lounge videos are a quick-hitting “learning lab” on a particular topic, tactic/tool or issue pertinent to athletic communications and creatives professionals.

Content is provided by the CoSIDA Professional Development and Education Committee and the New Media Committee with tips and tricks related to technology content.

When held at our in-person CoSIDA conventions, these Educational Lounges have been a first-come, first-served signup and limited to less than 35 people per training session so that each participant can ask questions and get one-on-one advice. As we schedule our June #CoSIDA22 Convention in Las Vegas, please check back during the winter/spring semester for more information on the way Educational Lounges will be handled.
