This week we highlighted Pandemic University's upcoming masterclass called Writing is Your Nature, which runs May 11-25. The free class was "designed to sharpen your non-fiction writing through the lens of ecology and conservation." We also talked about Shift by Alberta Innovates, a podcast that "showcases the work being done in the province’s innovation ecosystem -- everything from health to clean energy." A recent episode featured Garth Warner, president and CEO of Servus Credit Union.
