Hi!  I'm Ed Planning, here to introduce you to CDL's Educational Planning Resources.  Educational Planning is a process of questioning and thinking about your education.  It's based on questions that are important to you, questions that can deal with your interests, skills, and personal and professional goals.  These ed planning resources include connections with others, real-time discussions, video resources, links to college publications, and more. Welcome to - and from -  ed planning!
