Free Google Training Offered to U of A Employees This Summer

The University of Arkansas STEM Center for Mathematics and Science Education is offering free Google training this summer to UA employees.

Instead of using multiple platforms for storing, editing and sharing files, creating polls, sending surveys and other tasks, use Google Drive. Google has multiple productivity and collaboration tools available to simplify your life and can be accessed anytime.

You'll learn how to stay organized and make these products do the hard work for you. Choose any of the three-hour sessions available on June 3rd and 4th:
