Each webinar is 90-minutes long, and free for teachers by using the promo code NHCED.  CEU credit is available upon completion.  Virtual seats are limited, however, so early registration is strongly encouraged.  We also can create a group registration with interested districts or schools.  

We will be announcing several new projects in the coming months that recruit and assemble humanities educators from across the country to work closely with NHC scholars and staff on curriculum design and innovative technology.  Our goal is to support teacher agency - and to build a strong network community of humanities advocates.
