This Cloud has a Silver Lining
Cloud services such as Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides are revolutionizing the way people work and collaborate. Finding the time to learn new skills such as: live document collaboration, sharing online docs, or changing document permissions can be a challenge. Our Integrated Learning Specialist, Cari Teske, can help you utilize cloud services in your daily practice. She will be holding multiple Google training sessions this winter through spring.
