Ascender’s Spring Seminar brings together scholar mentors, educators, advisors, counselors and trainers from across the state to discuss progress and challenges in the program and to share best practices in the classroom. It focuses on team building while also addressing the needs of various disciplines through breakout sessions and is always responsive to the needs of the current cohort.
