<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype",serif;color:#1F4E79">I am emailing to let you know that CCS campuses were extremely interested in participating in the WA Learning Lab. However, the transition happening in many
offices and the time expectations caused concern for many departments. I suspect this opportunity is in high demand for campuses with buy-in from multiple departments which is why I refrained from applying.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype",serif;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype",serif;color:#1F4E79">The reason I am reaching out to you, after the deadline, is to let you know that should there be any remaining spots available, our Project Management team
(myself, our Innovation Officer, and our Procurement specialist) would love to participate. Our solution to time concerns would be to share out applicable topics after we attend the sessions to benefit other departments. I know this isn’t the WA Learning Lab’s
vision, but our colleges could greatly benefit from this opportunity. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype",serif;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype",serif;color:#1F4E79">I completely understand if this is not an option and will watch for future opportunities. I thought hard about sending this out and then remember my own
advice to my kiddos, “If you don’t ask, the answer is always no; if you ask, there is always a possibility it might be yes.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype",serif;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype",serif;color:#1F4E79">I look forward to learning how campuses benefitted from the opportunity and to future events.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
