ICAPS Virtual Learning Communities
Illinois ICAPS/IET Learning Community sessions provide programs the opportunity to share information, ask questions, and learn from one another. All ICCB IET grant recipients are required to be a part of the ICAPS group. Learning communities are for participants to learn from each other, and both AE and CTE/training partners should attend.
ICAPS Virtual Learning Communities take place on the second Thursday of each month at 2 PM. For access to ICAPS VLC or if you have any questions, please reach out to Sarah Goldammer at sgoldam@siue.edu or Tara Schwab at tarschw@siue.edu.
