Bridge and ICAPS Virtual Learning Community
Upon recommendations from the field, the Transitions Academy Advisory committee, and the need to build the pipeline from Bridges to ICAPS to employment, we will have combined VLCs that are industry focused. The combined Bridge and ICAPS Virtual Learning Community will take place typically on the third Thursday of each month. We have worked hard to preserve the rich conversation, networking, and collaborative aspects of the VLCs in this new format while spotlighting programs that will spark ideas and conversation. As always, please reach out to SIPDC with any questions or concerns.
