Feedback & Keys to Success
How do you feel BAW participation benefited your organization and the local community?
Our chapter benefited by a review of brain facts. The social interaction and engagement during a time of COVID uncertainty helped to unify our chapter. We laughed and learned together – that’s the immediate outcome.
Please share any suggestions or lessons learned that may help others plan future events:
The Kahoot is always a lot of fun. Be sure to make the names random to give an air of mystery to those competing.
