Dear Northwestern Community,
Despite disruption to our programming due to the closing of the Searle Center until further notice, we want to assure you that we remain committed to continuing to support graduate students and postdoctoral trainees in their professional development.
We will continue to offer our programs remotely. The Teaching Certificate Program and Workshops will be held online, and we will continue to support our community, particularly those graduate students and postdoctoral trainees who are working to transition their teaching online.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to us in these challenging times, as we are here to help!
