Virtual Extension
OSU Extension’s educational outreach teams — PACE, EESC and ECTU – are continually adding new resources and updates to the Virtual Extension site on the Extension Employee Intranet.
Virtual Extension complements OSU’s Keep Working and Keep Teaching websites, with information specific to our Extension and Engagement context. The website features a list of resources to help you:
- Take your work online using the right tools for the right tasks
- Connect with your audiences in new and creative ways
- See what others in Extension are doing to respond, adapt and innovate
Virtual Extension was featured on this week’s First Monday video.
The Virtual Extension team seeks your feedback, and for you to share your needs and ideas so we can work together through this current situation and position us for even more ways to serve Oregonians in the future.
