Our Impression of the Challenges Community Colleges Face, Dr. Nora Garza, Vice President for Resource Development & External Affairs, Laredo College
The April 9, 2021 webinar focus: Evaluation as a Strength of Your Grant Proposal, Racheal Boren, Director, NMSU Southwest Outreach Academic Research (SOAR) Evaluation and Policy Center
Every spring the seven Regional Conferences gather student and professional members to champion each other and expand their knowledge and skills through a wide variety of workshops and sessions.
Regional Conferences are typically held at college campuses, hosted by the school’s AISES Chapter. Many professional members participate as mentors and speakers, sharing their expertise and facilitating discussions in areas like engineering, environmental science, or on crossovers between traditional ecological knowledge and western science.
Rachel Boren earned her Ph.D. in Educational Research, Statistics, and Evaluation from the University of Virginia, where she was trained in program evaluation and research methods in education and the social sciences. She has a diverse portfolio of training and experience with program evaluation and research in education and healthcare, most recently as an evaluator for the Provost’s Office at the University of Texas at El Paso and the Director of Evaluation for a 70 million-dollar National Institutes of Health funded center based at the University of Washington.
This workshop will define the unique challenges of “BIG” (large capacity (>100 MWe) and long-duration (>6 hours)) energy storage for grid applications, increase awareness in the energy storage community, and identify needs and gaps that must be addressed to realize the capability.
