eLearning
In the spring of 2008, CSBA launched eLearning, its online learning and information resource center. eLearning supports, enhances and promotes effective governance and a sharper understanding of the current educational issues and trends that impact student learning and achievement. These timely and convenient learning opportunities are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and supplement CSBA’s regular education and professional development offerings.
In the future, we will offer access to forums, resource materials, assessments and more. The benefit of eLearning is to provide members access to information “on demand” and overcome timing, attendance and travel difficulties. In these tight fiscal times, CSBA is committed to providing you with timely information, while saving you money.
