The new look of our brochure

As many people may have noticed, our brochure has a new look. In an effort to cut back on expenses and on paper consumption, ECCA's brochure has been redesigned to be primarily accessed on-line. We've designed it to a regular 8.5x11 size paper for easier screen viewing and at home printing, instead of our previous 11x17 size. You can print specific pages if you want, rather than printing the entire brochure, or print only the registration form. We hope you find this new brochure easy to use and helpful in finding classes and programs of interested to you. We welcome any feedback or suggestions for changes via email to ecca@rcn.com. Thanks!
