The Institute - Purchasing and Using Program Units

Institutions that participate in the NITLE Network are eligible to purchase program units and to use them to register for NITLE's professional development events or to secure hosting privileges for Workshops To Go. Participating institutions can purchase program units at $100 per unit for the first 45 days after enrollment (or renewal of enrollment) in the NITLE Network. Any time thereafter, an institution may purchase additional program units at a cost of $125 per unit. To purchase program units, please send an e-mail request to participate@nitle.org. Program units may be purchased at any time, including at the time an event registration request is submitted.

Using program units to register for events

A faculty or staff member who wishes to register for a specific event should contact his/her liaison, who will know whether the institution has program units available to support participation in that event. If program units are available to support participation, the liaison will work with the interested party to register him/her for the event. If no units are available for use, the liaison--following campus policy--may purchase program units to support the interested party's participation in the event OR may recommend that the individual or his/her department purchase them. (Please note that campus policies on the purchase and use of program units vary by institution. Please contact your liaison to find out more about your institution's policy.)

NITLE events range in price from 1 program unit per participant for our shorter online events to up to 14 program units per participant for multi-day faculty seminars. Most day-long programs cost 4 program units per participant.

Using program units to host Workshops To Go
