Five Strategies for Making Interdisciplinary Teams Work
Tuesday, 5 January 2021 12 Noon to 1:00 PM Eastern time (GMT-5)
Interdisciplinary teams make for great project outcomes, but how do you make these teams work well? This presentation considers a recent successful state research grant project from proposal to completion. The project team was comprised of a digital archivist (librarian), a programmer, a UX researcher, and an instructional designer from three different departments across two organizations. The presentation will cover team formation, team functionality, collaboration tools, reporting mechanisms, project closure, and lessons learned.

I registered for an online course, but cannot attend at that time. Will I receive a refund?
If you are unable to attend the live sessions for an online course, the instructor may allow you to view the recordings of the sessions as an alternative. If you decide you want to cancel your registration you must do this prior to the second session. You will receive a refund, minus a $75 administrative fee. STC will also consider transferring your registration fee to another online course. This option is available only for courses in the same calendar year.
I want to take a specific course that isn't listed online. Will it be offered in the future?
STC rotates its courses every year as we try to offer the most popular ones within the first half of the year. Online courses are subject to change or are offered more than once per quarter. If a course is not listed, STC may offer it again in the following year.
