November/December Workshops
CELT events are open to IPFW and Ivy Tech staff, full and part-time faculty, and graduate students.
Take Five. A “Take Five” workshop can be arranged for anyone who has at least five people who are interested in a workshop on a particular topic. Like an improvised jazz arrangement, we can begin the planning when our office is notified and together create a time, place, and activities customized to your interests and needs.
