A podcast sharing SAIT's Makers, Shapers, and Originals. During each episode, the Centre for Academic and Development (CADI) speaks with a different faculty, staff, or leader from SAIT to share what they are doing in their own practice that has impacted their students, their peers, or the institute. Of course, the C.A.S.E. method (copy and steal everything) will be encouraged as best practices are shared that the listener may want to use in their own role at SAIT.
