WPL works closely with Laurier, regularly looking for opportunities to support our community through partnered events and activities. We know that this year has sparked many conversations about education and the ways in which young people experience learning, community connection and well-being. At the same time, we have learned so much about the complexities and opportunities of technology as a means of learning.
We are thrilled to be able to offer our customers the opportunity to learn from the incredible Faculty of Education at Laurier through the Laurier EdTalks Series.
