Can't make it to a workshop? No sweat! Take it on-line! We offer the same workshops on-line as we do through our  workshop sessions. Choose from a list of 9 different study skill development workshops. You don't need any additional software (the workshops are currently viewable through Internet Explorer) or materials when you take the workshops on-line. We suggest you take the workshops in the order below. Included in each workshop are useful links to downloads. Also, check out our list of reference material below that you can download and print.. 

 

A new browser window will open when you start a workshop. To return to this page, close the workshop window when finished.

 

 

The list of materials is in alphabetical order by workshop. If you feel you still need more information please feel free to contact us at 621-4548 for an academic counseling appointment. Also, consider signing up for a workshop or attending a series of workshops.
