ALSC’s online courses have received excellent reviews from participants.  Every week during the month of May, the ALSC Blog will feature first-hand accounts of participant experiences.  Check-out the first three posts that were just listed today! Courses are taught asynchronously using Moodle, an online learning community.  A certificate of completion will be sent to participants upon successfully finishing the course.  Detailed descriptions and course registration information is available on the ALSC Web site.  Fees are $95 for personal ALSC members; $145 for personal ALA members; and $165 for non-members.
