Welcome to the College of Information and Cyberspace!

**CIC CIO LDP Spring 2024 Class,**

On behalf of the Chancellor, Dr. Cassandra Lewis- Congratulations on your selection to attend the College of Information and Cyberspace, Chief Information Officer Leadership Development Program!

                        - Establish a dedicated work area at home that allows you the privacy and space to work without frequent distractions.
                        - Blackboard (Bb) is the principal learning tool; Blackboard has plenty of tutorials and the NDU Library staff will offer virtual learning sessions throughout the year.
