Yleana Past Events & Workshops

Yleana strives to promote a culture of continuous learning, during the summer and beyond. We partner with members of our community to bring unique events and opportunities to Yleana students and alumni. These events include online webinars as well as in-person gatherings. We try to use these as an opportunity to help Yleana students bridge gaps they might have and meet needs they articulate to us. We recognize that we can’t solve every problem every student has, but when we see a hole, we can fill it! If you have an idea for an event or workshop, please reach out to us at info@yleana.org.
