Research & Service Leadership Symposium

RSLS Winter Workshops

You’re Invited This Winter!

All Foothill students and faculty/staff/mentors are welcome to attend our on campus and virtual RSLS workshops. Whether you just want to learn more about the Symposium, or you are already developing a project and would like guidance, there is a workshop for you.

Workshop Sequence: Selecting the Right Workshop

The workshops below are designed in a sequence, starting with an introduction to the RSLS, moving through stages of development, and ending with the application process. You are welcome to come to any or all of these workshops.

Register for Online Workshops through Zoom

Once registration for each workshop is available, you will be able to click on live links in the workshop schedule below. You will be directed to the Zoom page to register for the event. You’ll receive reminders for the workshops a few days in advance.

Workshops Are Optional

Don’t worry, you can still apply to the Symposium. Just reach out to RSLS Coordinators, Allison Herman, Lisa Schultheis, and Laura Gamez (she/her) at RSLS@fhda.edu for more information. We can answer your questions and help you get the information you need.
