Testimonials
We asked campers what they valued about Virtual Summer Camp 2020. Here's what they said.
“Being able to put my arms around the scope of a network’s role and the manager’s role and hearing how others approach the work.”
“The wealth of tools and information shared.”
“Being able to connect with other network managers."
“The way information about networks was structured and presented was very good as well as the design of activities. And I always benefit from interactions with peers where you feel you belong and are understood, but also get new ideas and energy about your work.”
“… useful models and ways of structuring my thinking and approach to network coordination.”
“Overall, it gave me a sense of solidarity and validation that a lot of the strategic directions we have been pushing in are both useful and shared with other networks.”
“A better framework to think about my own work.”
“The network diagnostic tools will be helpful to review and reflect within my team going forward as a way of identifying and evaluating gaps.”
“[The] learning circle exchange of ideas and resources… [we] presented challenges we face and offered advice/resources.”
"I always enjoy exposure to theory and concepts, but the best learning is understanding how these are applied.”
“Having a space to share and exchange.”
“More awareness of the intricacies of networks, the fact that it’s a new field, that is still growing and defining itself... it has helped me gain a new perspective on how to explain the complexity of networks to our partners/members.”
“There is so much potential to grow my network if I know what to do. And now thanks to this platform I know what to do.”
“This course has left me wanting more knowledge and information on how to do my job effectively.”
