Skills4Success Workshops

Starts:

Venue: Online

No booking required

If you completed the Skills4Success questionaire at the beginning of last term you would have received a personalised report that included resources and workshops that relate to each of the academic skill sets in the survey. Term 1 can be so busy that it can be difficult to take up these opportunities and you may feel like you missed your chance. Well the good news is: you didn't miss out! We've collected all the remaining term 2 workshops for you here and listed them under each of the academic skills covered in the survey. Hopefully you find something helpful and we look forward to seeing you in a workshop soon!
