2023-2024 Course Schedule

Electives

The following SPaRC’Ed Elective Courses will be offered during the 2023 - 2024 program year. SPaRC’Ed electives are open to all research administration staff and are not limited to SPaRC’Ed participants.  Elective courses will be offered in a hybrid format allowing for in person attendance in the SPA Training Room (1901 S. First Street, Suite A, Champaign) and online.  Please note there are separate registrations for the in-person and remote attendance options.  All participants will be required to log into the Zoom session so a laptop or tablet is required when attending courses in person.  Elective course registrations are managed through the Ability Learning Management System.
