Vote for a new name for the Partner Agency Learning System

Agency University will be coming back online (and in person) very soon with some major improvements and some changes. The system will still feature long form courses and CEUs through El Centro, but will also have more targeted trainings including produce handling, online shopping, and and an advocacy corner. Since this educational tool belongs to you, our Partner Agencies, we would like for you to share your thoughts on a more representative name. Some suggestions are included in the survey, but feel free to submit your own. If you have any questions please email Angela Johnson at AngelaJ@ntfb.org
