E-Learning Council's purpose is to create the premier peer-to-peer E-Learning Community. We recognize that in our current economic climate, valuable learning and networking opportunities can be difficult to obtain. To provide support for those who are unable to attend E-Learning Symposium for financial reasons, E-Learning Council and the Department of Informational Resources are offering two different scholarship opportunities to qualified applicants.
