COEHD Abroad - Spectrum magazine

  • Did you travel abroad during the last year?  
  • Did your visit relate to your work in any way? 
  • Did you have any work-related guests from abroad visit the college?

This is you last chance to have your travels or international relations included in the Spectrum magazine.   All that is needed is your name and where you traveled, or the name of the international visitor and their country.
