Each day will feature time to apply and adapt these experiences to your educational setting in a supportive environment with like-minded peers. Take home tools to help transform your institution and promote a sense of well-being in yourself, your team and your learners. 

2020 Retreat Overview

This is a residential retreat. There is no commuter rate. One of the retreat’s goals is to create a cohort of learners that will be emotionally and physically present throughout the entire experience. This will facilitate continued growth after the retreat and opportunities for future connection between professionals.

Experiential components will begin Monday, June 1 at 5 pm and conclude Wednesday, June 3 at 2 pm.
