Center for Global Studies, East Asia Center, South Asia Center, and Southeast Asia Center at the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies at the University of WashingtonI did not have any background knowledge of the Choices Program so I appreciated having an introduction to that. Time was split well between that and explaining the content of the unit along with modifications for different settings. – Recent Webinar Participant
