Workshops are led by Learning Centre instructors and staff. At the start of each term, Learning Centre Basics Workshops introduce essential study skills and helpful Learning Centre resources to support a strong start to the semester. Throughout the term, Skills for Academic Success workshops provide targeted study strategies to help students stay on track at key points in the semester.
