3. Workshops

• Are one-time workshops hosted in person in the Student Resource Building (SRB).Students sharpen their academic skills and try out new study strategies. Each skills workshop focuses on a specific topic, whether it be tactics, strategies, test taking skills (including the GRE), or general mindset.

Registration is required (via MyClas).

4. Academic Skills Consultations

• Are currently being led both in-person and online by CLAS skills counselors.
  
• Focus on specific issues, such as making a study plan, but can also address more general topics, such as how to be a successful student, as well as many others.
• For any student confronting learning challenges, CLAS recommends that you start by getting assistance from one of our Skills counselors. Very often a student’s actual issue or concern is not what they are studying but “HOW” they are studying. CLAS Skills counselors can get you started in the right direction. For more information, see our Academic Skills webpage and refer to Consultations. These will provide individual appointments with an academic skills specialist.

Registration is required (via MyClas).
