Skills Workshops are presented by students, staff & faculty in the Student Success Center who lead fun-filled, informative discussions and interactive activities to support classroom instruction by helping students at all levels become better learners and gain the confidence and skills to achieve their greatest possible academic success. Workshops are designed for a diverse student population and appeal to a variety of learning styles and skill levels.
Attend a workshop to...
