The Academic Skills Center Staff offers workshops throughout the semester.

Academic Skills Workshops

Learn how to have more interest in exploring your subjects! Know what to ask in class! Learn the concepts in class: NOT the night before the test! Come to our workshop and learn how.

Acing your tests begins long before study time! Deep learning leads to doing well on tests and can ultimately lead to developing mastery. We begin this process by being mentally prepared and academically focused. Attend an ASC workshop to learn how to get the most out of class and study time, so you can be prepared to learn more efficiently and effectively!

WORKSHOP: BRAIN-BASED LEARNING SKILLS
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 2023 AT 5PM

Ironically, most of us never had classes on how to learn effectively and efficiently. Our study skills from high school or even what we used to survive the first year of college will not last us a lifetime. 

Join Roger "Mac" Mancastroppa on Tuesday, September 12 at 5:00 p.m. for a chance to find out how to learn more easily and retain the information longer by using research backed-methods.

 
All are welcome; bring your questions, friends, and roommates!
