With many program spaces closed, designing a process for online student intake and placement is a necessity. What are successful ways to carry out this process? How can staff collaborate to share the work?
Come hear AACA Director of Next STEP Shinobu Ando discuss the process she and her colleagues put together (and revised) to move their assessments for applicants online. Shinobu will provide examples including interviewing, assessing language skills, and proctoring tests, as well as organizing small group and individual sessions.
