    <p>Critical thinking, communication, collaboration/team
    building and innovation/creativity have been consistently articulated as top
    skills and competencies by organizations for employee development, talent
    management, succession planning and organizational growth. Yet most graduates
    lack proficiency in these skills. While institutions want faculty to leverage
    more technology for engagement and faculty are ready to use it meaningfully for
    coursework, it somehow gets lost in translation. </p>
    
    <p> </p>
    
    <p>Join us for a one day training event to learn how Office 365
    can help faculty and staff incorporate technology strategically so students
    will be prepared to keep up with the fast pace of change in businesses and to
    compete in a global society.  </p>
    
    <p> </p>
    
    <p>Bring your own device to this one-day training designed for
    higher education institutions who want to learn more about Microsoft’s tools
