New Landscape MLGSCA/NCNMLG 2011
Impetus for Change • In-person interventions led to uneven training • Some facilitators wanted less disruption of flow MLGSCA/NCNMLG 2011
Transition to new mode • Switch to chat interventions MLGSCA/NCNMLG 2011

Future Directions MLGSCA/NCNMLG 2011
Future Directions • Passed ‘proof of concept’ stage • Advantages: greater capacity to respond to educational needs • Disadvantages: requires motivated students and facilitators • Encourage facilitators to promote service • Encourage students to utilize service MLGSCA/NCNMLG 2011
