What our graduates say about the CAGS Program

"I have had a wonderful experience as a student in the CAGS program at Plymouth. Each course provided an opportunity to collaborate with other New Hampshire educators to have substantive discussions about educational issues related to my work. The intellectual stimulation, class of different ideas and natural networking among colleagues was the kind of experience I wanted when I applied to the program - and got as a student! Thank you, Plymouth."
