Crash Courses

Crash Courses (5 hours to 30 hours in length) train learners in specific art, technical, and literary skills that can be applied to Action Learning Labs  and other projects throughout the curriculum. Crash courses will be delivered using a combination of both classroom and online instruction. Topics will be revisited from year at increasing levels of sophistication.
