Skills based video conferencing (SbVC)
WHAT IS AN ENHANCED PROFESSIONAL LEARNING SERIES (EPL)?
An EPL is an online interactive training and consultation series designed to encourage workplace learning. EPLs use current technologies and instructional/consultation activities to provide real-time skill-based learning and practice through group and self-study activities, reading assignments, and discussions. The main goal of an EPL is to build a community of practice where all participants actively engage with other professionals and consultants.
