During the visit, reviewers may ask students, faculty, or staff about the QEP titled: Education Reimagined: Engaging Students through Peer-Assisted Learning. It is essential that all members of the community are familiar with the QEP. If you would like to learn more, please join us for one of three 20-minute online QEP information sessions: Tuesday, March 26 3 – 3:20 p.m. Wednesday, March 27 11 – 11:20 a.m. Thursday, March 28 10 – 10:20 a.m. For security purposes, register for the session you select by clicking the date/time and the Zoom link will be emailed to you.
