EVENTS
As we continue this grand experiment we call social distancing, some educational
endeavors will continue through the coming
months.
University of Utah Health long ago embraced the use of video conferencing technology, including pioneering efforts with platforms such as Zoom Video Meetings.
Offerings such as Project ECHO should continue without interruption. Watch for a COVID-19 ECHO to be announced.
This newsletter lists several events that will be held using these distance learning platforms.
Many other events, including most of those that were announced in March, have been postponed. New times and dates for those events will be announced here in the coming months.
