PLA Digital Literacy Workshop Cohort

Hi, I hope I'm not asking a question that has already been answered...
We had already scheduled our fall programs and finalized the print version of the newsletter before the application process.
This means that we are kind of tweaking programs that have already been published for September, October, November.
An example would be:
Scheduled program name: Computer Boot Camp: Internet
For this program, we plan to use the DigitalLearn.org materials for Internet Basics.
Is this a program that would be allowable to count toward our overall Initiative attendance, even though the program has a different name?

I am also interested in the potential variance in program titles.

Hi Todd and Jamie,

It counts! You are welcome to choose new or different names for your workshops. The goal is to use some materials from the approved DigitalLearn workshops to meet your learner goals. You can make adjustments and bring different materials together to serve your community best.
