The overarching goals of our annual summer conference is for participants to consider the key components of learning communities and to develop learning communities to their institutional plan. Workshops address key elements of - organizing and administering learning communities, engaging faculty, engaging students, and program assessment and evaluation. Participating colleges are at various stages of building learning community initiatives on their campus.

Here are some participant reactions:

"gave our group new ideas for incentives and tools to assist faculty in learning communities."

"we began to really understand the importance of consistent professional development."

"great to see faculty and administration all on the same page."

"the Kingsborough team did a very good job of defining learning communities and providing a check list of the administrative support that is necessary for a learning community to succeed."
