This interactive, virtual, un-recorded Salon will feature Vice Provost Dr. Rovy Branon from University of Washington Continuum College. A well-known speaker on the systemic shifts needed to embrace lifelong learning, Dr. Branon will help us think about the future of learning for life.
The day will also feature a panel where you will learn different perspectives on the future of learning for life. The panel features learners working toward various type of credentials: pre-college, Associate Degree, Bachelor's Degree, Master's Degree, Professional/Skills Development, and an OSHER learner.
As an engaged participant in the live virtual event, you’ll also have an opportunity to participate in the Regions Respond: an opportunity to reflect, synthesize and network with peers in smaller groups after each presentation.
The day will wrap up with an opportunity to connect with the West Region Leadership team in an informal networking session. We look forward to welcoming you.

Regional Salons are half-day, virtual, curated opportunities for UPCEA members to engage in accessible, no-cost professional development and networking, offering a balance of formal presentations and facilitated, two-way, informal conversation. These lively gatherings are designed for members by members, around a theme or topic of critical importance, and tap subject matter experts in and outside of UPCEA, as well as spotlight the important work of our members. Regional Salons provide members a chance to grow their professional networks, to showcase their accomplishments, and to solve unique and shared challenges with peers.
