WIL-Community of Practice


On February 20th, ACEWIL hosted its 3rd WIL-Community of Practice meeting, with Larissa Petrillo of KPU sharing her work leading the institution’s WIL strategy. This included KPU’s WIL page (http://www.kpu.ca/wil), examples of WIL projects, WIL Database, the Service Learning Assistance (SLA) program, Learning Outcomes for WIL, and more.

If you missed the WIL-CoP and would like to hear Larissa’s presentation, you can access the recording here.

The WIL-CoP is organized and hosted by the ACEWIL Membership Committee. If you are interested in sharing your WIL work at the next WIL-CoP meeting (will take place mid-April), please email Alon Eisenstein at alon.eisenstein@ubc.ca
