Join a Fall Community of Practice, Campus Compact – Sep 22

Posted by Campus Compact on September 13, 2022

Communities of Practice (CoPs) provide a unique opportunity for community engagement practitioners to join peers across the country to dig deeper into specific areas of engagement practice. Through discussions, joint activities, resource sharing, and relationship building, participants develop a repertoire of resources, skills, and knowledge to use in their practice. Above all, the CoPs provide a great space to communicate and share strategies with like-minded individuals from all across the country!
