Learning Opportunities

Water Cooler Sessions

The office watercooler is an informal place to gather and exchange information. RTNA chose this image to identify its province-wide video conference sessions.

The purpose of the RTNA Watercoolers is to create informative and interesting sessions where research transfer ideas, innovations, and learning can be occur. These opportunities are for RTNA members and others in Alberta who are involved or interested in research transfer.
