Hear How Faculty Use the IERC

We know you can’t always attend workshops or talk to one of us directly, so we’re constantly upgrading the information and services available online. Take a look at our Hear from Faculty feature.

We’ve interviewed five faculty members from across the AHC who actively use the IERC. They describe their use of our facilities and services and reflect on how the IERC has impacted their teaching and assessment experiences. Let us know if this is something you’d like to see more of in the future.
