Continuing Professional Studies

Current Course Schedule

These short-format workshops are designed for us to learn from each other with expert guidance. Courses and workshops are meeting online and in person. Check the course dates and description for the format. Workshops that meet for less than four hours are fully synchronous. Longer courses may include asynchronous components and will meet synchronously within the time frame specified. Scheduling details and directions for accessing the online course will be emailed upon registration. All times listed are Eastern Time (ET).

Continuing Professional Studies enrolls students on a first-come, first-served basis until all spaces are filled. Registration dates vary by course and can be found in each course description. For more information, please email cps@bankstreet.edu.
