Shared Calendar for Professional Development--What should we use? Google Calendar, Sched, SBCTC Calendar? $250/year to expand Sched or $100 to purchase Wordpress Site. Someone would need to enter info on SBCTC calendar and only one person from SBCTC eLearning team has access. Might cause an issue. Eventbrite is free if the session is free. Need to check calendaring options in Eventbrite. Vote to encumber $300 to use for calendaring options.
