CDIs - One Year Later

Year 2 of our Curriculum Development Institutes (CDIs) just began with a successful two-day workshop in Salt Lake City. This year’s theme, One Year Later: The Reality vs. the Ideal – Next Steps? , recognizes that many faculty often find curricular infusion to be more difficult and slower than expected. Nevertheless, all CDI programs are implementing changes in their foundation courses. Faculty participants will report on their planning year successes, challenges, and lessons learned; meet with their mentors in small groups; and determine next steps. New this year, region-specific presentations will be given by experts in the field on such topics as gerontological social work competencies, diversity, sustainability, and mental health.
